Praying for Your Safety

For you my heart is longing
Oh you of my souls eyes
For you I wait in silence
Praying for your safety.

From my arms they stole you
And sent you off to war
With sward of gleaming steel
They care not for your safety.

Throughout the land your battle cry
Rises in the night
I hear you calling out to me
Fearing for your safety.

My one, my love, my other half
Give peace to a land of war
But come ye back and soon my love,
To bide with me in safety.
