You ask me what since we must partA
You shall bring home to meB
Bring back a pure and faithful heartA
As true as mine to theeB
I ask not wealth nor fameC
I only ask for theeB
Thyself and that dear self the sameC
My love bring back to meB
-
You talk of gems from foreign landsD
Of treasure spoil and prizeE
Ah love I shall not search your handsD
But look into your eyesE
I ask not wealth nor fameC
I only ask for theeB
Thyself and that dear self the sameC
My love bring back to meB
-
You speak of glory and renownF
With me to share your prideG
Unbroken faith is all the crownF
I ask for as your brideG
I ask not wealth nor fameC
I only ask for theeB
Thyself and that dear self the sameC
My love bring back to meB
-
You bid me with hope's eager gazeH
Behold fair fortune comeI
I only dream I see your faceJ
Beside the hearth at homeK
I ask not wealth nor fameC
I do but ask for theeB
Thyself and that dear self the sameC
May God restore to meB
