Girl of my heart; but once I've seen
Your face, and you are years away;
Yet are you nightly in my every dream,
And with me day by day.
Girl of my heart, can I but dream
Your beaty and your angel grace?
Never am I to hear your singing voice? .
Or look upon your fair face? '
This is the world. What is my wealth
And all my name and fame to me?
My castle walls are prison walls for aye.
I may not come to thee. '
Fair as the midnight lily's face
"Pure as the moonlight uu Uie'bnuw
Sweet as the scent of clover fields'at 'morn'
" In dreams of long ago.
Girl of my heart, but once I've seen
Your face, and years away you live.
Yet have I known you better day by day; m
Yet would 1 give
All that I have or hope to have,
All that I am or hope to be
To rest at last within thy two fair arms
At last to rest with theel
