She is Mine

Oh, thou happy day, I greet thee!

She is mine, my heart's desire!

Love's sweet influence fills the world with magic beauty,

Sweeps o'er my heart with its sacred fire.

Love is like the radiant sunshine,

Filling all my day with light,

Love is like the silver moonbeam,

Love illumes the darkest night.

Ah! what joy, this dear possession!

Ne'er I dreamed that it could be.

She is mine, my fairest, she is mine, my dearest,

Mine for all eternity!

Life is filled with sweetest promise

Now my own has come to me;

She is mine, my dearest, my fairest,

Mine for all eternity!
