:Do not go, my love, without asking my leave.
Do not go, my love, without asking my leave.
:I have watched all night, and now my eyes are heavy with sleep;
I have watched all night, and now my eyes are heavy with sleep;
:I fear lest I lose you when I am sleeping.
I fear lest I lose you when I am sleeping.
:Do not go, my love, without asking my leave.
Do not go, my love, without asking my leave.
:I start up and stretch my hands to touch you.
I start up and stretch my hands to touch you.
:I ask myself, “Is it a dream?”
I ask myself, “Is it a dream?”
:Could I but entangle your feet with my heart,
Could I but entangle your feet with my heart,
:And hold them fast to my breast!
And hold them fast to my breast!
:Do not go, my love, without asking my leave.
Do not go, my love, without asking my leave.

Do not go, my love, without asking my leave.
I have watched all night, and now my eyes are heavy with sleep;
I fear lest I lose you when I am sleeping.
Do not go, my love, without asking my leave.
I start up and stretch my hands to touch you.
I ask myself, “Is it a dream?”
Could I but entangle your feet with my heart,
And hold them fast to my breast!
Do not go, my love, without asking my leave.
