RISPETTO

IIIAh, Love, I cannot die, I cannot goDown in the dark and leave you all alone,Ah, hold me fast, safe in the warmth I know,And never shut me underneath a stone.Dead in the grave! And I can never hearIf you are ill, or if you miss me, dear,Dead, oh, my God! and you may need me yet,While I shall sleep, while I—while I—forget!A. Mary F. Robinson

Ah, Love, I cannot die, I cannot goDown in the dark and leave you all alone,Ah, hold me fast, safe in the warmth I know,And never shut me underneath a stone.

Ah, Love, I cannot die, I cannot go

Down in the dark and leave you all alone,

Ah, hold me fast, safe in the warmth I know,

And never shut me underneath a stone.

Dead in the grave! And I can never hearIf you are ill, or if you miss me, dear,Dead, oh, my God! and you may need me yet,While I shall sleep, while I—while I—forget!

Dead in the grave! And I can never hear

If you are ill, or if you miss me, dear,

Dead, oh, my God! and you may need me yet,

While I shall sleep, while I—while I—forget!

A. Mary F. Robinson
