By the sea

George Alexander MacFarren

The sea has its pearls

the sky has its stars

but my heart, my heart

my heart has its love.

The sea and the sky are big

but my heart is even bigger

and my heart twinkles and shines

more beautifully than pearls and stars.

You small, young girl,

come to my big heart;

my heart, the sea and the sky

are dying of loud love.]
