Three chimes of the heart -
A time will come, and a moment will pass,
When your indelible lips, which I have loved in (the)past,
Will kiss another
Two chimes of the heart -
So gently,
So softly,
So tenderly,
As they once did with me
In memories gone too fast.
In another's ear your laugh will charm, though still ringing in mine,
And of love his heart will be convinced, a trust which I resigned.
The beauty beating beneath your breast, the only I have ever known,
Will belong to another's caressing hand, every rip now stitched and sewn.
One chime of the heart -
Once the time comes, and after moment passes,
When your every thought is of him, as it once was with me,
I wonder if he'll realize how lucky he is; I wonder if I'll agree.
If ever you feel the pulse of my heart, no matter how faint the beat,
Remember always the undying love I had for you…
With a last chime of the heart -
Farewell, till the next time we meet.
