Last night for the first time, O Heart's Delight,

I held your hand a moment in my own,

The dearest moment which my soul has known,

Since I beheld and loved you at first sight.

I left you, and I wandered in the night,

Under the rain, beside the ocean's moan.

All was black dark, but in the north alone

There was a glimmer of the Northern Light.

My heart was singing like a happy bird,

Glad of the present, and from forethought free,

Save for one note amid its music heard:

God grant, whatever end of this may be,

That when the tale is told, the final word

May be of peace and benison to thee.
