The heart speaks, “dum dum dum,”
And love comes out of a flask.
For you is the life that draws
Happy dreams that please me so.
Happy dreams that picture
My entire past life, now changed.
My coming life, with you, will light
The darkness of my torment and despair.
Gather the joy before it passes,
The harvest of happiness it gives.
It grows sweet in your clarity, and I no longer wish
To bring back a single year from my life.
Happy dreams, in them, is all yearning,
You are the bliss that waters them.
You are the song and the sweetest meanings,
Happy dreams that please me so.
