If you love me, it brings no joy, br But the tears come easily..... br Cascading waves leaving my eyes br For shores of uncertainty br br If you love me, why must I ask br 'O, do you love me, my dear? ' br Why do these words ride restless winds, br And answers never appear? br br If you love me, where is my smile? br It hides in obscurity, br No revelling in Spring's first rose, br Nor the robin's melody br br If you love me, why does the moon br Cover her face with a veil..... br Can she not bear to see your love br Looking so fatigued and frail? br br If you love me, my heart deceives, br Empty it feels, night and day, br I asked for but a flower of love.... br No demands for the bouquet br br If you love me, can you explain br Why these thoughts come to my mind? br Your love can't find its way to me....
