Come to me, Charon, boatman of the infernal regions!<br>
''Who dares to call me in such haste?''<br>
The grief-stricken spirit of a faithful lover,<br>
Who loved well but was treated ill for all his pains.<br>
''What would you of me?'' Take me to the kingdom of death.<br>
''Who has killed you?'' O cruel question!<br>
Love was my undoing. ''Never do I make the crossing''<br>
''With anybody who has died of love.''<br>
I beg you, Charon, take me in your boat!<br>
''Find yourself a different boatman, for neither I nor Fate''<br>
''Ever dare defy the king of the gods.''<br>
Then I shall go in spite of you, <br>
For my heart is so full of love's darts <br>
And my eyes so full of tears<br>
That I myself shall provide the river, the boat and the oar.<br>

Come to me, Charon, boatman of the infernal regions!
Who dares to call me in such haste?
The grief-stricken spirit of a faithful lover,
Who loved well but was treated ill for all his pains.
What would you of me? Take me to the kingdom of death.
Who has killed you? O cruel question!
Love was my undoing. Never do I make the crossing
With anybody who has died of love.
I beg you, Charon, take me in your boat!
Find yourself a different boatman, for neither I nor Fate
Ever dare defy the king of the gods.
Then I shall go in spite of you,
For my heart is so full of love's darts
And my eyes so full of tears
That I myself shall provide the river, the boat and the oar.
