My Beloved Friend

My eyes and your eyes,

Oh, the beautiful stones!

Mine was yours and yours was mine,

you know what I mean.

So long have I not seen him.

Ah! A sincere heart did always lead him.

He had everything that I wished for,

that most took him1

I love you insatiably,

Uncontrollably with the greatest flood of tears.

You, I wished I had never met,

Oh you, my beloved friend.

So long have I not seen him

Ah! A sincere heart did always lead him.

He had everything that I wished for,

that most took him

I love you insatiably,

Uncontrollably with the greatest flood of tears.

You, I wished I had never met,

Oh you, my beloved friend.

1. Not sure what this last part means. "Er hatte alles was ich mir wünschte / die meisten trugen ihn" in the German translation.
