Analysis of A Piece of Request
Yeshiembet/Yeshi Gemaneh 1940 (Harar)
It is written You, O God
Are faithful, keeping every promises
Nothing stops you from carrying out
Your own plan
How could an ordinary person like me?
Get close to you?
You invited all to come to your place
Your invitation with no discrepancy
You are willing to accept all sinners
Your promise is firm and clear
You welcomed and talk to all
As far as we believe in you
“Cast me not off in the time of old age
Forsake me not when my strength failed,” Ps. 7l: 9
