::If thou wouldst east thine heart
<poem>
::Of love and all its smart,
If thou wouldst east thine heart
::Then sleep, dear! Sleep !
Of love and all its smart,
::And not a sorrow hang  
Then sleep, dear! Sleep !
::any tear on thine eyelashes;
And not a sorrow hang  
::Lie still and deep  
any tear on thine eyelashes;
::sad soul, Until the seawave washes  
Lie still and deep  
::The rim of the sun tomorrow
sad soul, Until the seawave washes  
::In Eastern sky.
The rim of the sun tomorrow
<br>
In Eastern sky.
 
::But wouldst thou cure thine heart
::Of love and all its smart,
::Then die, dear, die.
::'Tis deeper, sweeter,
::Than on a rose bank to lie dreaming
::With tranced eye;
::And then alone, Amid the beaming
::Of Love's stars, thou'lt greet her
::in Eastern sky.
<br>

But wouldst thou cure thine heart
Of love and all its smart,
Then die, dear, die.
'Tis deeper, sweeter,
Than on a rose bank to lie dreaming
With tranced eye;
And then alone, Amid the beaming
Of Love's stars, thou'lt greet her
in Eastern sky.

If thou wouldst east thine heart
Of love and all its smart,
Then sleep, dear! Sleep !
And not a sorrow hang
any tear on thine eyelashes;
Lie still and deep
sad soul, Until the seawave washes
The rim of the sun tomorrow
In Eastern sky.

But wouldst thou cure thine heart
Of love and all its smart,
Then die, dear, die.
'Tis deeper, sweeter,
Than on a rose bank to lie dreaming
With tranced eye;
And then alone, Amid the beaming
Of Love's stars, thou'lt greet her
in Eastern sky.
