Where then is my pain? I have no more pain. Where then is my love? Naught I reck
thereof.

On the sweet strand withdrawn, in this hour's serenity, in the innocence of
dawn, O the distant sea!

Where then is my pain? I have no more pain. Where then is my love? Naught I reck
thereof.

Waves of ribbons bright, breeze from out the main, waves of ribbons bright twixt
my fingers white.

Where then is my love? I have no more pain. Where then is my pain? Naught I reck
thereof.

O'er heaven's pearly way dreaming eyes pursue a sea-gull's plumage gray, all
shining with the dew.

I have no more pain. Where then is my love? Where then is my pain? I have no
more love.

In the innocent dawn, O the distant sea! 'Tis but a murmuring at the margin of
the sun.

Where then is my pain? I have no more pain. 'Tis but a murmuring at the margin
of the sun.
