1. Every word from a beloved
Of charming elegance and wit

2. Of pure heart and dear friend
Of sound mind and good sense

3. Alluring me with his poetry he recites and sings
In a melody like the singing of a gazelle

4. I almost sing along in rapture
Like the cooing of doves in verdant bowers

5. Eyes of an angel whose magic they could not resist
Trying despite modesty to captivate me

6. A noble brow, if it willed, could make
The lost wander in dark labyrinths
