OH, MY TREASURE
Oh my treasure and all I possess
The life of my heart &
Light of my eyes
The beauty of the world in my eyes.
I love him & when he speaks to me
And calls me with tenderness
Saying «ah», it drives me mad
My love, my life & all
My dreams are with him
And I live for him my whole life
& All my days
His eyes greet me,
Talk to me
And mesmerize me & I find
Their words filling my mind.
My life, my world, my lifetime
He calls my heart
Owns my affairs
Oh, light of the world, oh, my moon
