My Love, how doth my heart to thine its love
Proclaim - when each contracted deed one thought:
The fixed etching of thy face; how to prove
Thy doubtful heart my worth, when mine is wrought
With the spell of thine, but the mind will fail
To awake the tongue from its frosted bed —
Oh, how thou hast captured me! Now my sail,
Thy love its only force, to thee is led;
My compass - the bright star within thine eye;
The flame that glows inside thy heart the sun
That giveth love and warmth - else all should die...
But with my lips on thine we breathe as one:
With each new breath I give my life to thee,
And with thine, thou sustains the life in me.
