The poems of Heine; Complete / Translated into the original metres; with a sketch of his life

by Heinrich Heine

28.

I’ve no belief in the heavens
Of which the parsons rave;
In thine eyes believe I only,
In their heavenly light I lave.

I’ve no belief in the Maker
Of whom the parsons rave;
In thine heart believe I only,
No other God will I have.

I’ve no belief in the devil,
In hell or the pains of hell;
In thine eyes believe I only,
And thine evil heart as well.
