My beloved, my dark lord, smiled, and I was struck,
Struck down, oh, struck down by his smile alone.
In innocence, love bloomed, in innocent guise,
Lost in waiting, I'm wounded, wounded deep.
My beloved, my dark lord, smiled, and I was struck,
Struck down.
Deceiver, charmer, your gaze deceives all,
Deceiver, charmer, your gaze deceives all.
When my gaze met yours, when they entwined,
My heart was stolen away, stolen from me.
Wounded, I am wounded, oh, I am.
My beloved, my dark lord, smiled, and I was struck,
Struck down.
In the world's gaze, I became a traveler,
In the world's gaze, I became a traveler.
In the new lane of two eyes, in that new space,
I lost my way, I lost the path I knew.
Wounded, I am wounded, oh, I am.
My beloved, my dark lord, smiled, and I was struck,
Struck down.
