Thomas Campbell. a tribute
How delicious is the winning
Of a kiss at loves beginning
When two mutual hearts are sighing
for the knot there’s no untying
Thomas Campbell
1777-1804
Glosa
How delicious is the winning
of a partner to our sinning
We reckon not the punishment
which may arise from our intent.
Of a kiss at loves beginning
part of the song our hearts are singing
As we both move in harmony
in pursuit of sweet ecstasy.
When two mutual hearts are sighing
each to the others need replying
Dame Nature’s laws must be obeyed
by every man and every maid.
For the knot there’s no untying
we must hurry time is flying
We seize the opportunity
what need is there to feel guilty.
