Love on the earth alitA
Come to be Lord of itA
Looked round and laughed with gleeB
Noble my emperyC
Straight ere that laugh was doneD
Sprang forth the royal sunD
Pouring out golden shineE
Over the realm divineE
-
Came then a lovely mayF
Dazzling the new born dayF
Wreathing her golden hairC
With the red roses thereC
Laughing with sunny eyesG
Up to the sunny skiesG
Moving so light and freeC
To her own minstrelsyG
-
Love with swift rapture criedA
Dear Life thou art my brideA
Whereto with fearless prideA
Dear Love indeed thy brideA
All the earth's fruit and flowersG
All the world's wealth are oursG
Sun moon and stars gemH
Our marriage diademH
-
So they together fareC
Lovely and joyous pairC
So hand in hand they roamI
All through their Eden homeI
Each to the other's sightA
An ever new delightA
Blue heaven and blooming earthJ
Joy in their darlings' mirthJ
-
Who comes to meet them nowK
She with the pallid browK
Wreathing her night dark hairC
With the red poppies thereC
Pouring from solemn eyesG
Gloom through the sunny skiesG
Moving so silentlyC
In her deep reverieC
-
Life paled as she drew nearC
Love shook with doubt and fearC
Ah then she said in truthL
Eyes full of yearning ruthL
Love thou would'st have this LifeM
Fair may to be thy wifeM
Yet at an awful shrineE
Wert thou not plighted mineE
-
Pale paler poor Life grewC
Love murmured It is trueC
How could I thee forsakeN
From the brief dream I wakeN
Yet O belov d DeathO
See how she sufferethO
Ere we from earth departA
Soothe her thou tender heartA
-
Faint on the ground she layF
Love kissed the swoon awayF
Death then bent over herC
Death the sweet comforterC
Whispered with tearful smileP
Wait but a little whileP
Then I will come for theeO
We are one familyO
