Down from thy throat's white hollow

Unto thy breast that's whiter:—

Thine arms, that clasp me tighter;

One kiss then on thy mouth,

Warmer than all the South;

And eyes, than waters brighter

Wherein the far stars glow.

Smile on me now I leave thee!—

And kiss me on the brow!—

Smile on me, love, nor grieve thee!
