	I know this my lord 
	I’ll have to give you my all – 
	Whatever I possess 
	Whatever I have to say, 
	Everything I see, everything I hear, 
	All my works with all my heart 
	And all my movements – 
	All these I’ll have to give. 
	Turning towards you 
	All my dawns, all my dusks 
	Have to blossom like flowers 
	In the foliage of my heart. 
	My lyre, now being set to tunes, 
	Will be yours 
	When it will play your songs. 
	All my happiness, all my sorrows 
	When I’ll fill them with your pleasure 
	You will take them in your hands 
	Whatever I got as my own 
	When I’ll give them to you 
	In an auspicious moment
