TESTO DEL LIED

"I fear thy kisses, gentle maiden"
di Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822)

I fear thy kisses, gentle maiden;
Thou needest not fear mine;
My spirit is too deeply laden
Ever to burden thine.




I fear thy mien, thy tones, thy motion;
Thou needest not fear mine;
Innocent is the heart's devotion
With which I worship thine.
