First Line: As when the day is done
Last Line: Heart of my heart!
Subject(s): Hearts; Love; Passion
As when the day is done
The clouds troop one by one
Toward the sun,
So turn my thoughts to thee
For aye, unceasingly,
Where'er thou art;
Day of my heart!
As grows toward the light
The pale shoot hid from sight
In earth's deep night,
So upward to its goal,
Swift stretches out my soul
To where thou art,
Light of my heart!
As brooks merge in the bay,
As April bursts to May,
Morn swells to day,
So am I lost in thee,
So must thou ever be
Of me a part,
Heart of my heart!
