Ich bin deine, |
I am yours, |
Tugend |
Virtue |
Du bist meine, |
You are mine, |
Beide |
Both |
Küsse mich, |
Kiss me, |
Ich küsse dich. |
I kiss you. |
Wie Verlobte sich verbinden, |
As lovers bind each other, |
Wie die Lust, die sie empfinden, |
just like the delight that they feel, |
Treu und zart und eiferig, |
faithful and tender and eager, |
So bin ich. |
so am I. |
