I knew I longed for happiness so sweet,
But without the touch of your lips so dear,
Time's torment makes my heart skip a beat,
Yearning for joy, my longing crystal clear.

I crave to sip the juices of your love,
To collect drops of happiness so pure,
Like a gentle rain from heavens above,
My soul aches for the cure you can assure.

Oh, let me taste the sweetness of your kiss,
Let me drown in the depths of your embrace,
For in your arms, all my worries dismiss,
And in your love, find solace and grace.

So come, my love, and banish my despair,
With your touch, my happiness repair.
