						Heart, my heart, what can it mean?
 What could trouble you so?
 What a strange new life, it seems!
 You, I no longer know.
 Everything you loved is done,
 Everything that grieved you,
 All your work and peace is gone –
 How could this overtake you!
 
 Are you caught by lovely youth
 By that beloved form,
 By those eyes so good and true,
 By that all-powerful force?
 When I try to run away,
 Collect myself and flee,
 In a moment my path strays
 Back to her you see.

						By that magic thread, so
 That cannot be untied,
 The dear wanton girl, oh
 She holds me fast: and I
 Must lie within her magic spell
 And live where she may go.
 How great the change, I tell!
 Love! Love! Let me go!
