This lyric is clear and compact in its motif. It tends to be effectively established that it is around two individuals and states the loss of a friend or family member. As Weary Pilgrim is about the passing of a friend or family member and the longing it pursues. All through the ballad, the storyteller is always expressing things that the pioneer will never do again or will never be understanding. "The consuming sun no more will warm, nor stormy rain on him will beat" is only one case of an ordeal or occasion that will never again transpire. By kicking the bucket he is presently in a place where there is no torment and enduring, however, joy and joy.  

Despite the fact that the pilgrim is presently very still, the storyteller aches to be with him. From this, we can expect that the storyteller is a spouse or darling who is experiencing the misfortune. "Master make me prepared for that day, at that point come, dear Bridegroom, return" is demonstrating that she is prepared to be brought together with him. She has experienced her life and is prepared to hit the bucket. "I truly long to be very still and take off on high among the best"  

She additionally considers herself a pilgrim who landed close to the finish of her voyage. She is a corrupt animal and her body is exhausted by her age. She wants to take off among the favored in paradise and to rest perpetually from the common inconveniences. She feels prepared for the day of biting the dust and entering paradise and asks the groom (i.e. Jesus, the spirit is hitched to him) to come home.

Several phrases are present in the poem which constructs the momentum of action, in relation to the world. These phrases show the worldliness which the author rebukes after the death of the dear part of her life. Moreover, the questioned phrases are elaborated below for a clear understanding:

  1. Wasted limbs: <em>Tired legs, here, the tired spirit to fight death; </em>
  2. Burning sun: <em>The sun nurtures everyone, however here, the author’s beloved is dead, which ironically is a juxtaposition of the Sun’s quality of building the life; </em>
  3. Hungry wolves: <em>It is the metaphor used to describe the person who thought poorly of the pilgrim. </em>
  4. Rugged stones: <em>This states that the pilgrim was a hard-working human and now that, he is taken away, the irritating stones or rough path of life can lay no more harm to one being talked about in the poem. </em>

As we study these phrases, it can be noticed that the nouns are prefixed with their attributive adjectives. The major number of phrases here is hyperbolic, just to exaggerate the emotional elevation of the author's mind and to picture the cruelty of the living world.
