You have commanded me to prostrate only now, whereas I had already written and pledged my submission long ago in the covenant of servitude.

Here, the speaker addresses the beloved or the Divine with a tender, devoted pride, saying that the command to bow down has arrived only today, but their soul never waited for orders. Long before any formal decree, they had already pledged complete surrender in their personal covenant of love. It transforms devotion from a mere obligation into an innate, timeless choice where submission was written into the heart from the very beginning.
