434. O sweet oblivion, O great remembrance

O sweet oblivion,
To you I bow and bow.
You have made me forget
All my yesterdays,
My yesterdays’ bitter failures.

O great remembrance,
To you I bow and bow.
You have granted me the capacity
To remember all my sublimely significant conversations,
My conversations with the Lord Supreme.
