| |
| LOVE in my heart: oh, heart of me, heart of me! | |
| Love is my tyrant, Love is supreme. | |
| What if he passeth, oh, heart of me, heart of me! | |
| Love is a phantom, and Life is a dream! | |
| |
| What if he changeth, oh, heart of me, heart of me! | 5 |
| Oh, can the waters be void of the wind? | |
| What if he wendeth afar and apart from me, | |
| What if he leave me to perish behind? | |
| |
| What if he passeth, oh, heart of me, heart of me! | |
| A flame i’ the dusk, a breath of Desire? | 10 |
| Nay, my sweet Love is the heart and the soul of me, | |
| And I am the innermost heart of his fire! | |
| |
| Love in my heart: oh, heart of me, heart of me! | |
| Love is my tyrant, Love is supreme. | |
| What if he passeth, oh, heart of me, heart of me! | 15 |
| Love is a phantom, and Life is a dream! | |
