O come, o come, my dearest
Language: English
O come, o come, my dearest, and hither bring Thy lips adorned with all the blooming spring. A thousand, thousand sweets their fragrant atoms blend, Which in a gale of joy thy breath attend. Thy love in gentle murmurs to my soul apply, Heal me with kisses or else I die.
