You are my heart’s delight,
And where you are, I long to be
You make my darkness bright,
When like a star you shine on me
Shine, then, my whole night through
Your light divine bids me hope anew
That dreams of mine may perchance come true
And I shall hear you whisper, “I love you”.
In dreams when night is falling
I seem to hear you calling
For you have cast a net around me
And ‘neath a magic spell hath bound me
Yours, yours alone
How wondrous fair is your beautiful hair
Bright as the summer skies is the light in your eyes
Soft as the turtle doves' is the voice of my love!
You are my heart’s delight,
And where you are, I long to be
You make my darkness bright,
When like a star you shine on me
Shine, then, my whole night through
Your light divine bids me hope anew
That dreams of mine may perchance come true
And I shall hear you whisper, “I love you”
