My heart is newly gushing,

With love for thee, with love for thee,

With thoughts as wild and wasteful,

As yonder sea, as yonder sea.

Oh yes! my soul is wretched

With longing pain, with longing pain,

It gives a ceaseless moaning,

Like yonder main, like yonder main.

Thy strange and matchless beauty,

Is like the sea, is like the sea;
