My verses would flee, sweet and fragile,To your garden so lovely,If my verses had wings,Wings as the bird has.They would fly, these sparks,To your laughing hearth,If my verses had wings,Wings as the spirit has.To you, pure and faithful,They would hurry, night and day,If my verses had wings,Wings as Love has!
