Classic Poem

From lands where Love for ever dreams
?Thy soft eyes took their light;
No moon with quite such magic gleams,
?Nor any star by night.
There is a light that from the soul
?Flows forth, and that is thine;
The only light that can control
?So wild a heart as mine!
Thou bindest all my heart in chains,
?Sweet chains, as sweet as strong;
Love sometimes for one moment reigns,
?But thou hast reigned so long!
In truth I now begin to see
?That we shall never part,
But that God's vast eternity
?Will link us, heart to heart.
The thought is strange and solemn, love,
?Yet sweeter than 'tis strange:
Grand is the love time cannot move
?And life's cares cannot change.
Love me with changeless love like this—
?Then let time work its will,
It cannot steal or mar our bliss
?If we be lovers still!
