I'm shy to talk to you!

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 beginsAnd 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 belowAnd long for you forever.
