What angels ride the heaven
in my lover's eyes.
What dreams are born there
in the double-Venus,
the twin planets of love.
What islands of sanctuary are those eyes,
islands in the storming sea of my life.
What gardens of delight,
my lover's eyes,
what sweet refreshment,
in the desert of days and nights
What cool rain falls there
in the summer of those eyes.
What deep wells of pure water,
those eyes,
what bliss for my dry and thirsting soul.
And in the night,
when the light is put out,
I come to you, breathing shadows of love,
And find your eyes glittering like jewels
in the cave of my desire.
