Soul departs the body, the body departs the soul,
Soul departs the body, the body departs the soul,
Like this, my beloved, I for you,
My love, I make whole.
To the eye, a ray, to breath, a breeze,
To the eye, a ray, to breath, a breeze,
To live, you are essential, my vow, I unroll.
Soul departs the body, the body departs the soul.
The heart isn't bound, it binds itself to you,
Love isn't awakened, it awakens, it's true.
What they call, love's devotion,
Is a blessing from the ocean,
Before all the world, my feelings accrue.
Soul departs the body, the body departs the soul,
Like this, my beloved, I for you,
My love, I make whole.
As devotion's prayer,
When I see your face, so fair,
Upon your head, I see,
My love's garland, for eternity.
The image in my dreams,
Is your form, it now seems,
Your servitude, my soul endures.
Soul departs the body, the body departs the soul,
Like this, my beloved, I for you,
My love, I make whole.
