- Chorus:
- Bind your love tightly
- Never to be severed over
time
- Doing all that is proper
- So that you and I prosper
together
My love, listen to me
For here I am, waiting
I know that you are
willing
How lovely is the heart's
desire
- When love comes
- The fond memory arises
- Constantly urging me
- We two should be back
together
-
- All passions
- Come to fulfillment
- When the time comes
- You're satisfied, we`re
satisfied together
The heart is soothed
- Slowed within
- Fastened securely
- To continue the desire
within
