Thy dark eyes to mine, Eilidh, Lamps of desire! O how my soul leaps Leaps to their fire! Sure, now, if I in heaven, Dreaming in bliss, Heard but a whisper, But the lost echo even Of one such kiss -- All of the Soul of me Would leap afar -- If that called me to thee Aye, I would leap afar A falling star!
