The Radiance of a Lady 91
Your love illuminates my heart,
And you have forbidden me to reveal this honor.
How can the light of your brilliance be dimmed
When it radiates from everywhere?
It shines like a sapphire,
a diamond, or a jewel,
And dazzles everyone
with your blonde beauty.
You do not believe in my love,
In turn,
While I can love no one else but you;
This is my destiny, this is my faith.
You are my heart and my soul,
You are my destiny, you are my law.
I cannot bear it when you are far away, beautiful woman,
You who soothe my heart in flames.
In you, I find all my vows,
You who make my days happy.
