Oh joy sublime:
there's ineffable peace
Gushing from
ecstasy's fountain
Within me! Oh
nectar
Of joy, all-embracing
peace --
You are sweet
hillside music
Flooding the
senses on a serene
Clear new-moon
night when the stars
Cast their potent
spells. Hypnotic
Dew lulls me
into a wakeful trance.
Indescribable joy, this foretaste of
Eternal bliss;
may I never lose you!
Must I work the
meanest job, endure all
Pain, offer all
that I own to keep you?
I will gladly
do all these and more
For your sake,
oh joy sublime:
Boundless peace,
my love!
