Come, be happy and sit near to me
Shadow-vested
Shadow-vested misery
Unwilling silent bride
Mourning in thy, in thy robe of pride

Come, be happy and sit near to me
Sad as I may seem
Sad as I may seem to thee
I'm happier far than thou
Lady, whose imperial brow
Is endiademed with woe

Hasten, hasten to the bridal bed
Underneath the
Underneath the grave 'tis spread
In gloom may our love hide
I may rest with my eternal bride

Kiss me, kiss me, oh! Thy lips are cold
Around my neck
Around my neck thin arms, thin arms enfold
They're soft, but chill and dead
And thy tears upon my head
Like points of frozen lead

Clasp me till our hearts, till our hearts be grown
Like two shadows
Two shadows into one
Till this dreadful transport may
Like a vapour fade away

We may dream in that eternal sleep
That we are not the kind of those who weep
Even as pleasure dreams of thee
Thou majest dream of her with me

Clasp me till our hearts, till our hearts be grown
Like two shadows
Two shadows into one
Till this dreadful transport may
Like a vapour fade away

We may dream in that eternal sleep
That we are not the kind of those who weep
Even as pleasure dreams of thee
Thou majest dream of her with me

Hasten, hasten to the bridal bed
Underneath the
Underneath the grave 'tis spread
In gloom may our love hide
I may rest with my eternal bride

Kiss me, kiss me, oh! Thy lips are cold
Around my neck
Around my neck thin arms, thin arms enfold
They're soft, but chill and dead
And thy tears upon my head
Like points of frozen lead
