IF to her eyes’ bright lustre I were blind,

No longer would they serve my life to gild.

The will of destiny must be fulfilid,
This knowing, I withdrew with sadden’d mind.

No further happiness I now could find:

The former longings of my heart were still’d;

I sought her looks alone, whereon to build
My joy in life, all else was left behind.

Wine’s genial glow, the festal banquet gay,

Ease, sleep, and friends, all wonted pleasures glad

I spurn’d, till little there remain’d to prove.

Now calmly through the world I wend my way:

That which I crave may everywhere be had,

With me I bring the one thing needful love.
