Rhyme Scheme: AB CD EFA GH AD ABIJKLLight oh where is the light | A |
Kindle it with the burning fire of desire | B |
- | |
There is the lamp but never a flicker of a flame is such thy fate my heart | C |
Ah death were better by far for thee | D |

Misery knocks at thy door | E |
and her message is that thy lord is wakeful | F |
and he calls thee to the love tryst through the darkness of night | A |

The sky is overcast with clouds and the rain is ceaseless | G |
I know not what this is that stirs in me I know not its meaning | H |

A moment's flash of lightning drags down a deeper gloom on my sight | A |
and my heart gropes for the path to where the music of the night calls me | D |

Light oh where is the light | A |
Kindle it with the burning fire of desire | B |
It thunders and the wind rushes screaming through the void | I |
The night is black as a black stone | J |
Let not the hours pass by in the dark | K |
Kindle the lamp of love with thy life | L |
