My eyes are straining in their gaze,
For you-for you
count the dreary passing days,
For you-for you
Ny heart is yearning for the sight,
The one and only beacon bright
That floods my soul with love and light
For you-for you!

no matter what might be the cost,
For you, my king, 'twere all well Iost'
For you-for you!

Make love thy slave in all complete,
