All this world to me a painful dose
Of people, so full of scorn
Prickly like many a thorn.
And yet when I hold you close
Feels as if cradling a rose.
And when this world has tired me
Should I see your smile
Like glistening dew drops,
And when I catch your glance
with those mischievous eyes
Love to feel my heart flutter.
For you my dear,
are my heart’s desire,
my soul’s fulfilment
the sunshine of my life
You my dear, are my joy for ever.
