This life, a fleeting, breath-held trek,
And if it fades in mem'ry's beck,
So be it then.
When earth and heaven slumber deep,
And in your thought, I vigil keep,
Through endless night.
You do not know,
My love, my soul,
How in your trace,
I've left this space,
And now, where you are, I'm embraced.
Have you not paused to ponder, love,
Unknowing heart, from stars above,
How much I yearn,
Each passing hour, I softly burn.
