Oh, peace of my heart,
Oh, peace of my heart,
Grant solace to this soul, a prayer I implore.
Oh, peace of my heart,
Grant solace to this soul, a prayer I implore.
Your own shadow, a mirror you meet,
My beloved, and shame's blush you greet.
Your own shadow, a mirror you meet,
My beloved, and shame's blush you greet.
This is but the first threshold we find,
And already, dear heart, your spirit's confined.
What shall become of me, think for a while,
Ah, such sighs, my love, you should not compile.
Oh, peace of my heart,
Grant solace to this soul, a prayer I implore.
Your longing, your name,
My only song, no other flame.
Your longing, your name,
My only song, no other flame.
Beyond these downcast eyes,
My heart knows no other paradise.
No other face can my vision enthrall,
My heart seeks you only, what can I call?
Oh, peace of my heart,
Oh, peace of my heart,
Grant solace to this soul, a prayer I implore.
