| Not one shivering gust creeps through pane or door | C |
| The little lamp burns straight its rays shoot strong and far | D |
| I trim it well to be the wanderer s guiding star | D |

| Frown my haughty sire chide my angry dame | E |
| Set your slaves to spy threaten me with shame | E |
| But neither sire nor dame nor prying serf shall know | F |
| What angel nightly tracks that waste of frozen snow | F |
| - | |
| What I love shall come like visitant of air | G |
| Safe in secret power from lurking human snare | G |
| What loves me no word of mine shall e er betray | H |
| Though for faith unstained my life must forfeit pay | H |

| Burn then little lamp glimmer straight and clear | I |
| Hush a rustling wing stirs methinks the air | G |
| He for whom I wait thus ever comes to me | J |
| Strange Power I trust thy might trust thou my constancy | J |
