My heart is high, is high, my dear,

And the Heaven's deep skies are blue;

My heart is high as the passionate year,

And smiles like a bud in dew.

My heart, my heart is high, my sweet,

For wild is the smell o' the wood,

That gusts in the breeze with a pulse o' heat,

Mad heat that beats like a blood.

My heart, my heart is high, my sweet,

And the sense of summer is full;
