Between my two hands as I sit I hold it there

And never will let it again go out of the hands of me.

For it may be that once you will let me wander the thoughts of you

By a chance, for a moment, and then you will see me bear

The fast-held lantern-light of the dream that was given by you

Since I never will let it go ... will you know? will you care

That the light I bear in my hands came out of the hands of you?
