Now each flowery bank of May,
Woos the streams that glide away,
Mountains fanned by a sweet gale,
Loves the humble-looking dale,
Winds the loved leaves do kiss,
Each thing tasteth of love's bliss.
Only I, though blest I be
To be loved by destiny,
Love confessed by her sweet breath,
Whose love is life, whose hate is death,
