Thus let us live, my dear, and let us love.   
   I know it is without a second care   
   That we can look into the heart of life   
   And bring alive the beauty that we share.   
   To sun - to shine, to earth - to bloom, to us - to kiss.   
   We look into the galaxies and know:   
   We have been given universal bliss,   
   Beneath the stars that shimmer, clouds that glow.   
   When I behold the native, simple joy   
   Of river running through a summer meadow,   
   Of butterfly that floats, of little boy   
   That looks enchanted at a grass blade's shadow,   
   When in the plasma of the beaming sun   
   Hydrogen atoms merge and give out fire;   
   When stars quadrillion miles apart can shine as one   
   And of their incandescence never tire;   
   When days are bright and filled with gentle pain   
   And every gentleman looks gently at you,   
   When in your beauteous form I see the rain   
   And thank the stars beneath which I have met you,   
   When you look in my face and say "I love"   
   And then your lips give out a painful smile,   
   When there are many, many stars above   
   And we that love are here for a while,   
   When clouds are running over sunlit sky   
   And rain that drops from them does water flowers   
   I know but only this: I'm free to fly   
   Since we, that will to live, do love each other.
