Forget the fear of loving ill,
And give yourself away.
The more you love, the more you will
Have reason to obey.
Each has will to happiness,
Retaining rights to be,
'Mid a world of more or less,
Satisfied and free.
Deeper still lies what one would
Align with some eternal good,
Yearning for the sea.
