Awake my heart to be loved awake awakeA
-
The darkness silvers away the morn doth breakA
It leaps in the sky unrisen lustres slakeA
The o'ertaken moon Awake O heart awakeA
-
She too that loveth awaketh and hopes for theeB
Her eyes already have sped the shades that fleeB
Already they watch the path thy feet shall takeA
Awake O heart to be loved awake awakeA
-
And if thou tarry from her if this could beB
She cometh herself O heart to be loved to theeB
For thee would unashamed herself forsakeA
Awake to be loved my heart awake awakeA
-
Awake The land is scattered with light and seeB
Uncanopied sleep is flying from field and treeB
And blossoming boughs of April in laughter shakeA
Awake O heart to be loved awake awakeA
-
Lo all things wake and tarry and look for theeB
She looketh and saith O sun now bring him to meB
Come more adored O adored for his coming's sakeA
And awake my heart to be loved awake awakeA
