Until

Language: English

 No rose in all the world until you came,
 No star until you smiled upon life's sea,
 No song in all the world until you spoke,
 No hope until you gave your heart to me.

 O rose, bloom ever in my lonely heart,
 O star, shine steadfast with your light divine,
 Ring on, O song, your melody of joy,
 Life's crowned at last.
 And love, and love is ever mine.
