O love, I love you better than you know!
I love you as the water loves the sea.
I love you as the twilight loves the dark.
The trumpets of the morning, to my heart
From shining towers blow the thought of you;
The waves of evening flood my heart with you.
O life and joy and breath and death of me,
With every breath I draw you in like air!
O I shall die of you, of you, of you!
