If I had your company, I’d turn away from pain,
Every moment of life, I’d spend on you again.
If you were here, the lovely mirror in my room,
I’d gaze at it each time, to chase away the gloom.
If only you were a star, shining in the sky,
Every day from my window, I’d watch you passing by.
I’d never hope for love, nor plead for your embrace,
In silence I would bear, your hatred’s harshest trace.
I’d shield you from all evil, if only you were mine,
I’d hide you in my eyes, in my heart you’d shine.
If you were the light, that brightened up my street,
I’d look at you from windows, whenever we could meet.
If you were near, my eyes would never let you go,
Each night within your arms, my heart would overflow.
If I had your company, I’d turn away from pain,
Every moment of life, I’d spend on you again.
