Blessings from Hymen

Blessings from Hymen
Blessings from Hymen

As two branches of
well-grown plants
grafted to yield
fair, sweet new one.


As mellow honey dripped in
fresh, fruit juices
render it sweet, delicious,

As bright red
mixed in white hue
lend soft pink colour,

May these two souls,
mended, blended, wedded
in matrimony Holy
be blessed by Lord’ grace
in life’s all ways.

God bless the couple for long, happy, sweet life.
