[Verse 1: Katharine Whalen]
Since I first saw him, I think myself blind
I look around me and it's only him I see
His image floats before me, so gentle and so kind
He's got a clear mind and firm courage

[Verse 2]
Oh, ring upon my finger, little golden ring
Devoutly I press you to my lips and to my heart
Sisters come adorn me, banish foolish fear
Twine upon my furrowed brow the blossoming myrtle

[Verse 3]
I serve him and live for him, belong wholly to him
Give myself and find myself transfigured by his brightness
Ring upon my finger, little golden ring
Devoutly I press you to my lips and to my heart

[Verse 4]
The blissful dream of childhood has ended
Now I drink delicious death with you, my love
Now you have me caused me my first pain
That really hurt
You sleep, you hard cruel man, the sleep of death

[Verse 5]
The veil falls, the bell tolls
The black shawls, the carriage rolls
You, my whole world
