¶Lyrics / Text

Now must I part my darling, Of life and soul deceased. And love therewith is pleased. Oh, what a death is parting? But if the fates ordain it, Who can refrain it? Oh, what grief is now lacking! Yet needs I must be packing. Farewell, sweet heart unfeigned, I die, to part constrained.
