I wept today, on sun’s approach Although the sun flew gently by My feelings wane, my heart despairs For I just sit and often cry My eyes, they run, my heart, it shows My fragile being has no reply Other than, to cry alone, so often, too To feel so sorry and wish to die I know that’s wrong, to wish that true But, my eyes are heavily moistened still I have no heart, it’s shattered now I must then give up, I have no will So here I cry, unto the day As well, the night, it sees me weep My dying heart, does so control As tears permit me not to sleep
