Hidden Flame
I feed a flame within, which so torments me
That it both pains my heart, and yet contains me
'Tis such a pleasing smart, and I so love it
That I had rather die than once remove it
Yet she, for whom I grieve, shall never know it
My tongue does not betray, nor my eyes show it
Not a sigh, nor a tear, my pain discloses
But they fall silently, like dew on roses
Thus, to prevent my Love from being cruel
My heart's the sacrifice, as 'tis the fuel
And while I suffer this to give her quiet
My faith rewards my love, though she deny it
Thus, to prevent my Love from being cruel
My heart's the sacrifice, as 'tis the fuel;
And while I suffer this to give her quiet
My faith rewards my love, though she deny it.
On her eyes will I gaze, and there delight me
While I conceal my love no frown can fright me
To be more happy I dare not aspire
Nor can I fall more low, mounting no higher
Thus, to prevent my Love from being cruel
My heart's the sacrifice, as 'tis the fuel
And while I suffer this to give her quiet
My faith rewards my love, though she deny it
Thus, to prevent my Love from being cruel
My heart's the sacrifice, as 'tis the fuel
And while I suffer this to give her quiet
My faith rewards my love, though she deny it
My faith rewards my love, though she deny it
My faith rewards my love, though she deny it
That it both pains my heart, and yet contains me
'Tis such a pleasing smart, and I so love it
That I had rather die than once remove it
Yet she, for whom I grieve, shall never know it
My tongue does not betray, nor my eyes show it
Not a sigh, nor a tear, my pain discloses
But they fall silently, like dew on roses
Thus, to prevent my Love from being cruel
My heart's the sacrifice, as 'tis the fuel
And while I suffer this to give her quiet
My faith rewards my love, though she deny it
Thus, to prevent my Love from being cruel
My heart's the sacrifice, as 'tis the fuel;
And while I suffer this to give her quiet
My faith rewards my love, though she deny it.
On her eyes will I gaze, and there delight me
While I conceal my love no frown can fright me
To be more happy I dare not aspire
Nor can I fall more low, mounting no higher
Thus, to prevent my Love from being cruel
My heart's the sacrifice, as 'tis the fuel
And while I suffer this to give her quiet
My faith rewards my love, though she deny it
Thus, to prevent my Love from being cruel
My heart's the sacrifice, as 'tis the fuel
And while I suffer this to give her quiet
My faith rewards my love, though she deny it
My faith rewards my love, though she deny it
My faith rewards my love, though she deny it
