And seen a thousand places And through the years I paced the lands And left a score of traces In search for that heart whose inner worth More than a thousand maidens fair Whose beauteous girth a find so rare And clad in heavenly praises But none met I in all the earth And in all of its many faces A heart like yours God to birth Arrayed my dear in such graces |
|
And bathed in the mist of a thousand hazes The song of a thousand blossoms filled my heart To the frolic of a thousand chases In search of that soul my life to savor To the blush of a thousand virgins bright Whose gentle quaver the soul's delight Ornate in graceful braces And in kindness ne'er to waver But in all of earth's boundless spaces I adorn you my dear in crowning favor For naught in life your love replaces |
|
Trod the hills of the forest mazes The portrait of a thousand sunsets etched my soul Like the choral hues of a thousand blazes In search of one my soul's journey to end To the charm of a thousand matrons prudent To wisdom's bend a heart adept and ardent And the plight of truth raises But none like you such eminence to lend And the compassion of you laces The life of me in joy dear wife and friend Forevermore this heart of me amazes |
|
I laughed and cried with you a thousand tears In heartaches and in rapturous delight In life's travails and in triumphs bright But midst all the pains and heartfelt cheers We stood together To fend for faith and fears to tether And till our purpose is ended at last The Master's beck his kingdom cast I tell you with words ever so sincere If I had to live once again a thousand years Gladly it would be then with you my dear
