A Balcony Overflowing
Let this wine be an oath upon thy lips,
as good fortune is to greater things.
That the world of thy nearness shall at last be brought to life,
and lets me wear the coat of crimson kings.
as good fortune is to greater things.
That the world of thy nearness shall at last be brought to life,
and lets me wear the coat of crimson kings.
Wave thy bright and tranquil hand,
that I may make peace with the dragons of thy Medieval trance.
The cottages of our slumber shall not be built from faltering words,
for I have found my life's song in thy loving glance.
For as ye speak, I feel caressed
in the bitter of my deepest brow.
Let the winds cease from barking at thy heels in envy.
Let them see the pretty of thy face as I do now.
Let them see the pretty of thy face as I do now.
