LYRICS:
I have fallen in love 
With the same woman three times 
In a day spanning nineteen years 
Of tearful joys and joyful tears 
I loved her first when she was young 
Enchanting, brilliant, middle-strung 
Vibrant, fragrant, eternally new 
Cool, invigorating as the morning dew. 
Desperate, she shared, quieted my despairs 
Hopeful, she fanned the fires of my hopes 
Lavished me with days of bliss and peace, 
Endless, perpetual days of fond memories. 
She is my hope; I do not wish to realize 
Hence my hope; forever green, eternal prize 
My life transcending life, my ultimate quest 
Dream of my life for whom Ill spare no rest.

I fell in love again 
With the same woman the second time 
When first she bore her child and mine 
The first fruit of our union and our love. 
The pains and anguish of motherhood she braved 
Loved her children, their love she deservedly craved 
Times were she hung on the very brink of death, 
Unflinchingly fulfilling her mission to procreate. 
In politics I plunged, she was always by my side, 
Steadfast, uncomplaining, helping to turn the tide, 
Amidst hardship, her rare courage would not relent 
She was my secret weapon, the source of my strength. 
The world was my concern, our home her domain, 
The people mine, the children hers to maintain, 
So it was in those eighteen years and a day 
Till I was detained, forced in prison to stay. 

Suddenly she became our sole support 
Wellspring of hope, source of comfort 
On her shoulders fell the burden of life 
She emerged our captain in the sea of strife. 

I fell in love again 
With the same woman the third time 
Looming from the battle, undaunted, unafraid, 
Calm composed, she is Gods lovely maid.
