Under love's heavy burden do I sink
|
Can I go forward, when my heart is here?
|
I cannot be here, here and there,
|
there and here for You and I
|
are past our dancing days
|
|
I like the lightning
|
which does cease to be
|
ere one can say "I see"
|
Beauty too rich for use
|
for earth too dear
|
Did my heart love till now?
|
I forswear!
|
|
Regions near me seemed all alone
|
My mutual cry she never heard again
|
Now sadness is beloved, and love we gain
|
Alike bewitched by charm of looks
|
|
Night, sable Goddess,
|
from your ebon throne
|
Every eye is fixed on you alone
|
I thank you, moon, for showing me the way
|
Trip away, make me stay, meet me all
|
by break of day
|
|
You made mine eyes and merry tears
|
Oh, grim-looked night, the way you fear!
|
Full many flowers born to blush unseen
|
And waste their sweetness now
|
sure their last gleam
|
|
Trip away, make me stay,
|
meet me all by break of day
|
Heaven hell shadow-dancer
|
heatened blood makes holy hands unclean
|
|
Mine eyes look sad,
|
And grim-looked night away
|
Stare around the sphere
|
to blush unseen-your tears
|
|
When you turn away
|
Leave me out of the end
|
Turn your insane out
|
Leave me, it you will
|
|
Away from light steals forth my soul
|
I want give cure as know
|
But love's a smoke with fume of sighs
|
So swallow down and rise, autumn rise
|
