TU ME CHAMAS (1) by ANONYMOUS

First Line: IN MOMENTS TO DELIGHT DEVOTED
Last Line: "WHICH, LIKE MY LOVE, EXISTS FOR EVER"
IN moments to delight devoted,
'My life!' with tenderest tone, you cry;
Dear words! on which my heart had doted,
If youth could neither fade nor die.

To death even hours like these must roll,
Ah! then repeat those accents never;
Or change 'my life!' into 'my soul!'
Which, like my love, exists for ever.
