I touch your hands and my arms grows strong,
Like a pair of birds that burst with song
My eyes look down at your lovely face
And I hold the world in my embrace

Younger than springtime, are you, softer than starlight, are you
Warmer than winds of June are the gentle lips you gave me
Gayer than laughter, are you, sweeter than music, are you
Angel and lover, heaven and earth are you to me

And when your youth and joy invade my arms
And fill my heart as now they do
Then younger than springtime, am I, gayer than laughter, am I
Angel and lover, heaven and earth, am I with you
