• Beautiful eyes, beautiful face,
    I'm shy to talk to you.
    You're the eagle I must watch
    No matter what I do.

    You're the beauty, wild and free,
    The mistress of my eyes,
    Rolling through exultant air,
    Alone in pristine skies.

    I would take you for my own
    Could I but have your wings,
    Could I but go where night begins
    And frozen sunlight sings.

    Could I but have you for my love,
    How might we fly together!
    But I must watch you from below
    And long for you forever.
    But I must be the one below
    And long for you forever.
