Book Of Suleika - Love For Love

LOVE for love, and moments sweet,

Lips returning kiss for kiss,
Word for word, and eyes that meet;
Breath for breath, and bliss for bliss.


Thus at eve, and thus the morrow!
Yet thou feeblest, at my lay,

Ever some half-hidden sorrow;
Could I Joseph's graces borrow,
All thy beauty I'd repay!
