I love you, because in my thousand and one nights of dreams,
I never once dreamed of you.
I looked down paths that traveled from afar,
But it was never you I expected.
Suddenl I've felt you flying through my soul in quick, lofty flight,
and how beautiful you seem up there, far
from my always idiot heart!
Love me that way, flying over everything.
And, like the bird on it's branches, land in my arms
only to rest,
then fly off again.
Be not like the romantic ones who, in love, set me on fire.
When you climb up my mansion,
enter so lightly, that as you enter
the dog of my heart will not bark.
