Heed my plea, do not shatter this heart so,
Oh, heed my plea, do not break this heart so.
I must tell you, I must tell you this:
My heart, my love, my dear one,
My heart, my love, my dear one,
Belongs to you, and you alone.
My heart, my love, my dear one,
Oh, belongs to you, and you alone.
Heed my plea, do not shatter this heart so,
Oh, heed my plea, do not break this heart so.
I must tell you, I must tell you this:
My heart, my love, my dear one,
My heart, my love, my dear one,
Belongs to you, and you alone.
My heart, my love, my dear one,
Oh, belongs to you, and you alone.
My madness is born of your youth,
Upon my heart, your story is etched, oh love.
My madness is born of your youth,
Upon my heart, your story is etched, oh love.
I would forsake the world, forsake all time,
Oh, I would forsake the world, forsake all time,
To dwell within your memories, always.
My heart, my love, my dear one,
My heart, my love, my dear one,
Belongs to you, and you alone.
My heart, my love, my dear one,
Belongs to you, and you alone.
Into the lane, then climbing the terrace high,
Slender-waisted, her glances, a sharp, piercing cry.
Oh, sweeter than mango, the pit of the fruit,
Oh, my darling, you've captured my heart, root to fruit.
You come in my dreams, steal my sleep from me,
In the shade of your tresses, you lull me to be.
You come in my dreams, steal my sleep from me,
In the shade of your tresses, you lull me to be.
I am your lover, this I now know,
I am your lover, this I now know,
To tell the world, this is what I must show.
My heart, my love, my dear one,
My heart, my love, my dear one,
Belongs to you, and you alone.
My heart, my love, my dear one,
Oh, belongs to you, and you alone.
My heart, my love, my dear one,
Belongs to you, and you alone.
My heart, my love, my dear one,
Oh, belongs to you, and you alone.
My heart, my love, my dear one,
Belongs to you, and you alone.
