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
   O grim-looked night, the way you fear !
   Full many flowers born to blush unseen
   And waste their sweetness now,
   share 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,
   the 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, if 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 !
