Beloved, heed my plea, I beg of you,
Love me not so fiercely, it's true.
Beloved, heed my plea, I pray,
Lest the world should shame us, day by day.
Lest the world should shame, cast its blame,
A gentle act, a whispered name,
Beloved, heed my plea, I beg of you,
Love me not so fiercely, it's true.
Beloved, heed my plea, I pray.
Forget the world's sorrows, here, take a stride,
Let spring arrive with laughter wide.
Forget the world's sorrows, here, take a stride,
Let spring arrive with laughter wide,
With laughter wide, let joy reside,
Make verdant all you choose to embrace,
Make verdant all, with beauty's grace.
Beloved, heed my plea, I beg of you,
Love me not so fiercely, it's true.
Beloved, heed my plea, I pray.
Not a moment's peace I find,
Your eyes torment my heart and mind.
Not a moment's peace I find,
Your eyes torment my heart and mind,
My heart and mind, left far behind,
Fill my heart with every plight,
A hundred times, embrace the night.
Beloved, heed my plea, I beg of you,
Love me not so fiercely, it's true.
Beloved, heed my plea, I pray.
