Sara Teasdale, comp. (18841933). The Answering Voice: One Hundred Love Lyrics by Women. 1917. | | Ecstasy | By Sarojini Naidu |
| COVER mine eyes, O my Love! | |
Mine eyes that are weary of bliss | |
As of light that is poignant and strong. | |
Oh, silence my lips with a kiss, | |
My lips that are weary of song! | 5 |
|
Shelter my soul, O my Love! | |
My soul is bent low with the pain | |
And the burden of love, like the grace | |
Of a flower that is smitten with rain; | |
Oh, shelter my soul from thy face! | 10 | | |
