You breathed out the heart long subdued by her charms?
Her kiss was the answer; so slight yet so sweet,
’Twas enough; and that moment your bliss was complete;
From the lips to each heart went a holier thrill,
Delighting and binding those hearts closer still.
That first kiss of love, when no mortal was near,
Was a sign that dispersed the last vestige of fear;
She is mine, she is mine; mine now and forever;
By those holiest ties that death only can sever.
