Oh, love how you flee from me!
like a ghost haunting some sad and tragic place
you slip between my fingers
and leave an icy kiss
upon my lips
as you vanish like a fogy mist
at the breaking of day.
Oh, who has seen love
and who can tell me
of all her pleasures and charms
and her warm embrace.
Oh, my love
my heart has become like a glass flower
and like a glass flower
my heart is sure to break
in its all its longing
and sorrow for you.
Oh, you are the reason
that I am
and my heart beats its rhythm
only for you.
Oh, you are the song that leads me on
like a siren calling me
from some distant shore.
Oh, that call ever leads me on
and on that path I shall ever travel on
till I rest in your embrace
and in your embrace to ever remain.
