One Heart

Be it that one heart is burdened in sleep

In time of peace, one heart finds himself without peace

On that occasion: Where must one heart be comforted? 

Be it that one heart is burdened in prayer

In time of need, one heart kneels and kneels and kneels

On that occasion: When must one heart be comforted? 

Be it that one heart is burdened in love

In time of weakness, one heart remains blighted

On that occasion: How can one heart be comforted?

But one heart is weary and sleepy and sad

So one heart finds a hiding place 

Stays there forever 

Lest he burden another heart

But it appears to be that one heart is burdened always. 

And dear, dear reader,

In the end it is a sad fact that

One heart discovers the saddest 

And most uncomfortable burden of all

And it is that one heart is burdened
Most

Whilst
Alone.
