Embrace me now my love, this heav’nly night For who can tell, this fleeting life, we might Or never yet, a chance to meet again. These golden hours by good fortune are mine Come close and fill your heart with me, this sight For who can tell, this fleeting life, we might Or never yet, a chance to meet again. Come close, for soon, mere memories remain. My arms’ warm clasp, this time perhaps the last My eyes that gleam with tears, will all be past. Embrace me now my love, this heav’nly night The moon, the stars, all move on while we wait.
