Oh, Beloved, Oh, Beloved, heed my plea,
As the night unfolds, stars ignite the sky.
Why does sleep elude these eyes of me?
My lids won't meet, as hours drift on by.
Oh, my Love, my Love, my innocent one,
As the night unfolds, stars ignite the sky.
When eyes have lost their way, the day is done,
How can my lashes find their kindred tie?
Lost in love's melody, I start to sway,
Each moment aches, and tears begin to flow.
As soon as sleep descends, I go astray,
My limbs entangled, burdened, filled with woe.
As the night unfolds, stars ignite the sky.
Why does my heart feel so heavy, overflowing? Why do tears overflow?
Understand.
When he comes to me in dreams, my love so dear,
My arms embrace him, a tender, loving hold.
My fair, fair arms, banishing all fear,
With countless longings, stories to be told.
My flowers tinkle, a sweet song of the soul.
As the night unfolds, stars ignite the sky.
I open up my eyes and see that the tears overflow.
Come, let us unite, let us take our vows,
Never to part again, nor let our spirits burn.
Far from the world, a world we will endow,
Where sorrow's shadow cannot ever turn.
As the night unfolds, stars ignite the sky.
Come, sleep into my slumber, let's entwine, let our eyelids meet.
