Analysis of Stay with me
Stay with me as a ring of marriage,
When the dance of the night laugh at me,
And I become a house of love,
Where is the freedom of the brothel love which abodes the prostitute of the nigh dancers,
As I cry for my dead child,
Who died as a hero of the people,
How many years will I welcome a new child of the family,
who made me a dancing city,
Good bye my love!
