My cheek is pale, and hers is warm with bloom,

And we are left in that old carven room,

And she begins to sing;

The open casement quivers in the breeze,

And one large musk-rose leans its dewy grace

Into the chamber, like a happy face,

And round it swim the bees;


I know not what I said—what she replied

Lives, like eternal sunshine, in my heart;
