Ich Liebe Dich

You my thought,
you my being and becoming!
You of my heart
first bliss!
I love you
like nothing on this earth,
I love you
in time and eternity!

I think of you,
can always only think of you,
only your happiness
is this heart dedicated;

however God may
steer the fate of life,
I love you
in time and eternity!
