If this love proved a thousand years known
or simply blessed with one yesterday,
you've captured my heart forever in your hands;
Not a soul nor sin could lead me astray.
Our love…both ancient and yet so familiar
still blushes with pure passion's flame.
Forever anew at each dreamy day dawning,
two hearts born to beat forever the same.
If I was your queen in past days of old,
then certain my noblest of knight you'd be.
None could hold your enchanting presence
nor conquer this heart so vigilantly.
For inside your eyes is revealed my Heaven.
Within your arms my heart is complete.
Stolen my breath by your most tender of kisses
as by love's design our souls did meet.
God's spare the Heavens if at once I lost you,
tear out my heart and cast cruelly to sea,
leave hollow the chamber held only for your love,
and bury my soul to mourn at your feet.
For at last, we've found love so truly predestined,
passions flow at the most tender of thought,
trembled the whispers from dusk to dawning;
we're bound to this love we so passionately sought.
