English Lyrics: For the glory of adoring you I want to love you, O dear eyes [literally "lights"]. For the glory of adoring you I want to love you, O dear eyes Loving I will suffer, But always I will love you, Yes, yes, in my suffering, Loving I will suffer, But always I will love you, Yes, yes, in my suffering, I will suffer, I will love you, Dear eyes. I will suffer, I will love you, Dear eyes. Without hope of delight, Vain affection It is to sigh, Without hope of delight, Vain affection It is to sigh, But your sweet rays Who could ever gaze upon And not, and not love you? But your sweet rays Who could ever gaze upon And not, and not love you? I will suffer, I will love you, Dear eyes! I will suffer, I will love you, Dear eyes!
