Beautiful eyes, beautiful
face,
I'm shy to talk to you.
You're the eagle I must watch
No matter what I do.
You're the beauty, wild and
free,
The mistress of my eyes,
Rolling through exultant air,
Alone in pristine skies.
I would take you for my own
Could I but have your wings,
Could I but go where night begins
And frozen sunlight sings.
Could I but have you for my
love,
How might we fly together!
But I must watch you from below
And long for you forever.
But I must be the one below
And long for you forever.
