I Am a Bird from Paradise

May I remember always when, Your glance in secrecy met mine, And in my face your love was like A visibly reflected sign. May I remember always when, Your chiding eyes were like my death, And your sweet lips restored my life, Like Jesus's reviving breath. May I remember always when, We drank our wine as darkness died, My friend and I, alone at dawn, Though God was there too, at our side.
