What do I want? I want to marry you
and slip a ring across your finger's skin,
for I am better married than in sin.
If this is so, then is it also true
that it is better if I marry you,
you marry me, than we wed others when
I love no others; you, no other men?
If we then say we want to wed, we do.
What do you want? to also marry me
and slip a wedding ring onto my hand?
If so, my love, you are at liberty,
but better bound within the wedding band.
So let us ask each other while yet free.
What do we want? I pray we understand.
