I whispered to my heart, I whispered low,
O, mad one, tell me, do you know?
I whispered to my heart, O, mad one, say,
Since our encounter, you've lost your way.
What is this tale? What binds us so?
O, mad one, tell me, do you know?
I whispered to my heart, O, mad one, say.
Within the pulse, a hidden sound,
What song is this, what music found?
What whispered word, what secret bound?
O, mad one, tell me, all around.
My heart replied, since we have met,
The moon, the stars, the air, the fret
Of flowers, bees, the wind's soft sigh,
These lovely realms, the azure sky,
All seem reborn, my heart has said.
I whispered to my heart, now tell me true,
What is it in her that enthralls you?
What sorcery, what fairy's grace?
O, mad one, tell me, from this place.
My heart replied, no fairy she,
Nor maiden of great majesty,
Not fairest in this worldly sphere,
Simple, gentle, without fear,
But within her, a unique art.
Without her, life will tear apart.
I whispered to my heart, it's just this then?
That love has bloomed, my heart did pen.
I must confess, yes, I love her so,
Yes, I love her, yes, you know,
Yes, I love her, yes, I know.
