Bind not your beloved with custom's chain,
Nor vows, nor oaths, to hold them in your reign.
Let love's embrace be open, free and bright,
Meet whom you will, and cherish love's pure light.

Let love's embrace be open, free and bright,
Meet whom you will, and cherish love's pure light.
Softly, softly, my heart speaks, sings,
Softly, softly, my heart speaks, sings, ah!

Meet with your heart, all those your heart desires,
This youthful time, with life, it so aspires.

Each breath is numbered, live each passing hour,
In thoughts and questions, do not life devour.
