My heart’s own true love, come let us dance;
All around shimmers silver in moonlight,
And the night air is heady with fragrance,
Calling us to share our dreams of delight.
So take my hand in yours, and follow me,
To that secret arbour, our trysting place,
Where anointed in light, unseen and free,
Intricate patterns our spirits will trace.
Our limbs will entwine in artless desire,
Separate souls recombining in one,
Minted anew by the heat of love’s fire,
In a new life that can ne'er be undone,
We will seal our union with a kiss,
Radiant in our joyous dance of bliss.
