MY IVORY REBECCA (733)
1. My ivory Rebecca, please listen to my sweet line!
2. Young Calypso, I could not love your heart more,
3. Intangible angel, your sacred heart I adore,
4. Venus, I love your soul since you are divine.
5. Oh, Deity, in my heart you will always shine,
6. Red rose, if only I had seen you before!
7. Young pearl, you glitter on a golden shore,
8. Ruby in heaven your soul will forever be mine.
9. Echo, I will love you till the end of my life,
10. Bright diadem, it is holy to die for you,
11. Electra, I am bleeding cause of Cupid’s knife.
12. Chaste Daphne, thanks to my lines your glory is rife,
13. Candid Artemis, I am dying for you,
14. Aphrodite, in heaven you will be my wife.
Yours faithfully and eternally
