Goddess presiding over solitude
Kind shade, o' melancholy deity
Draw near, and take this joy away from me
For it perturbs my heart's soft quietude
Goddess...
Do not deprive, o' Nymph, my inward mood
Of the sweet sadness of your company
For she must sigh for you unceasingly
Whose only solace in your love's imbued
Goddess presiding over solitude
Goddess...
Goddess presiding over solitude
Goddess...
Without her sorrow piercing deeper still
Pay heed, o' Nymph, to what I beg you
For she must sigh for you unceasingly
Whose only solace in your love's imbued
Delay the moment not a moment more
The sweet sad days that I so sadly fill
Goddess presiding over solitude
Goddess...
