RISPETTO

IWhat good is there, ah me, what good in Love?Since, even if you love me, we must part;And since for either, an’ you cared enough,There’s but division and a broken heart?And yet, God knows, to hear you say: My Dear!I would lie down and stretch me on the bier.And yet would I, to hear you say: My Own!With mine own hands drag down the burial stone.A. Mary F. Robinson

What good is there, ah me, what good in Love?Since, even if you love me, we must part;And since for either, an’ you cared enough,There’s but division and a broken heart?

What good is there, ah me, what good in Love?

Since, even if you love me, we must part;

And since for either, an’ you cared enough,

There’s but division and a broken heart?

And yet, God knows, to hear you say: My Dear!I would lie down and stretch me on the bier.And yet would I, to hear you say: My Own!With mine own hands drag down the burial stone.

And yet, God knows, to hear you say: My Dear!

I would lie down and stretch me on the bier.

And yet would I, to hear you say: My Own!

With mine own hands drag down the burial stone.
