Lost love
M. Brahe
A hundred times I kissed the lips
Of my young love and true;
Now over her mouth the slow tide slips,
And where went down a hundred ships,
Went down my kisses too.
A hundred times I called to her
With a cry full long and sore,
But never more shall her spirit stir,
And never up from the wild water
Shall come my young love more.
