Love me till the grass dies on my grave
Love me till the earth rots my bones
For by then we shall have been joined
And new life will have crossed my loins

Someday we shall meet again
For death is only a minute's pain
Eternity carries forth the fire of love
That shall be fully sapped by us

And my love, my grave will become just a spot
To mark a place where I once was
A hole in which a shell of mine was lost

Now we are joinеd in a place that is new
Life is lifе in which we are two
Come what may, we'll have time to play
And make love May after May
Year after year, our bodies will meet
Continually joyful love will be sweet
Man and wife will easily be lost
And bodies will glitter like fields of frost
Like fields of frost
