Let them say to my LoverA
That here I lieB
The thing of His pleasureA
His slave am IB
-
Say that I seek HimC
Only for loveD
And welcome are torturesE
My passion to proveF
-
Love giving giftsG
Is suspicious and coldH
I have all my BelovedI
When Thee I holdH
-
Hope and devotionJ
The good may gainK
I am but worthyL
Of passion and painK
-
So noble a LordM
None serves in vainK
For the pay of my loveD
Is my love's sweet painK
-
I love Thee to love TheeL
No more I desireA
By faith is nourishedN
My love's strong fireA
-
I kiss Thy handsO
When I feel their blowsP
In the place of caressesQ
Thou givest me woesP
-
But in Thy chastisingR
Is joy and peaceS
O Master and LoveD
Let Thy blows not ceaseS
-
Thy beauty BelovedI
With scorn is rifeT
But I know that Thou lovest meL
Better than lifeT
-
And because thou lovest meL
Lover of mineU
Death can but make meL
Utterly ThineU
-
I die with longingR
Thy face to seeL
Oh sweet is the anguishV
Of death to meL
