“Love came and flew as blood in my veins
Emptied me of myself and filled me with beloved.
Each part of my being she conquered
Now a mere name is left to me and the rest is she.”

“Through love we're slain, the world's our slaughter house
We've no food nor sleep, the world's our cookhouse.
We've no desire for paradise, because
Our hell's a hundred times loftier than that.”

“When I was a lion, panther was my prey;
I caught everything which I hunted.
When I came to embrace tightly love for you,
A lame fox drove me from den.”
