To see your dear dear face
(Always my chiefest end)
The sun grants in his grace
And when the sunset’s passed
The switch that’s at my touch
Allows that light be cast
On what I love so much
Your eyes, the form I embrace.
But when we are apart
Light from another place
Illumines you – my heart
Which is the brightest source
By which I see you by –
Vaster than sun its force
Keeps you in my mind’s eye
