Sweet love,

You have visited me again

You came just in time

When my heart writhes in pain

Your arrival has been unbidden

That’s why I’m caught by surprise.

But then all is sweetness now

You had rekindled in me

The extinguished zest for life

My soul which for long

Had been enslaved,

Is now free again to savor your joy.

My veins which were all frozen

Now throb in joyous rhythm.

My blood which has turned so cold,

Is now burning with warmth

I bless your coming sweet love

Stay forever if you wish.

Let me cherish your sweetness,

As long as I live,

My all to you, I shall give
