Song

Tell me maiden -- maiden dear!
  Tell me what is love?
In thy brown eyes shining clear:
On thy lips, O maiden dear,
  Can I see it move?

It is two hearts, two hearts true,
  Two hearts with one beat:
Two souls shining, sighing through
Lips and eyes of morning dew,
With one wish between the two,
  And that wish to meet.

by Isa Craig (1831-1903) , "Song"
