Hands kissed by the sun god
Until their blush turned brown;

For ONE kiss-do not frOwn.
Since first saw "Brown Hands"
They've lead me in the right;
They've bound me with love bands
My heart Now has no night.
Those "Brown Hands, guide me true
Through duties of the day;
They tighten labor's due
My ev'ry thought they sway.
Those Brown Hands" press my lips
Wrong words then surely die;
Their warm, caressIng tips
Cause evil thoughts to fly.
They lead my feet in ways
never trod before;
Their clasp turn years to days
