1. The oaths of old have come to pass
Forbearance for them, and security for those in fear

2. So fulfill the oath that was between us
Keeping it removes distress and worry

3. And one like you does not forget, though time be long
Nor denies what he knows full well

4. I remind you of the pact between us
Though you've not forgot what I describe

5. And strangely I acquaint you with loyalty
While you, praise God, know it full well

6. So fulfill, take initiative, rise up, ennoble, promise, pass
Go, take comfort, have mercy - miserable is he who reneges
