Let it be you who lean above me / On my last day, / Let it be you who shut my eyelids / Forever and aye.

Say a "Good-night" as you have said it / All of these years, / With the old look, with the old whisper / And without tears.

You will know then all that in silence / You always knew, / Though I have loved, I loved no other / As I love you.
