Take, o take those lips away
Language: English
Take, o take those lips away,
That so sweetly [were]1 forsworn;
And those eyes, the break of day,
Lights [that]2 do mislead the morn:
But my kisses bring again;
Seals of love, [but]3 seal'd in vain, sealed in vain.
Hide, o hide those hills of snow
that thy frozen bosom wears,
On whose tops the pinks that grow
are yet of those that April wears;
But first set my poor heart free,
Bound in those icy chains by thee.

Trek de lippen vol venijn
Language: Dutch (Nederlands) after the English
Trek de lippen, vol venijn,
trek ze weg, die mij belogen;
wend van mij den oogenschijn ,
't licht, dat heeft mijn hart bedrogen,
Doch mijn' kussen breng ze weer ,
breng ze weer!
Valsche liefde geldt niet meer,
geldt niet meer!
O, bedek die heuvels, sneeuw
rijzend op den killen boezem,
waarop knopkens, tot mijn wee,
prijken als der rozen bloezem,
Doch geef eerst mijn herte weer,
geef het weer!
't lijdt in uwe macht zoozeer,
't lijdt zoozeer!
