Two Loves
Two loves i tenderly serve,
My first love, his smile only i deserve
Angelic face i gaze upon,
The other’s cherub eyes i’ve won
To them, my heart passionately belong
Yet, they say, more than one is wrong?
My voice for each, speak of a song
A ballad of affection,
A chorale in celebration
My soul, incessant promises it speaks
A vow, better or worse and for keeps
And for the other, sturdy wings i seek
Knowledge i will teach, be humble, be meek
My happiness, never will it subside
Arguments cannot us divide
For the other, care i will provide
His horizon, better and wide
My spirit rejoices in us three
From the past and present, one came to be
A bright tomorrow, he promised me.
Him on the other hand his life I’ll mold
The fate of his future, in my hands I hold
With my loves power I commit,
Of prevalent strength, I must admit
My life, they both complete
To them, I pledge my care and trust ,
To choose is torment, so I must not
Thus having only one is what ?
Ever after having naught.
For equal love I have shown
My devotion I have made known
On the day I was wed,
And to the other on his christening bed
