But, I Have You, My Love

by Juan Antonio Cordova


~I~
Another starless night it seems
the waves continues to rage
as we travel our destined journey:
!But, I have you my love!

~II~
The flowers are unusually dull this year;
and the fig tree did not blossom;
neither there is fruit in the vines:
!But, I have you my love!

~III~
The birds have stopped their morning melodies
as they nurtured their young:
!But, I have you my love!

~IV~
All our "friends", and those with whom
we share our intimate secrets have said goodbye:
!But, I have you my love!

~V~
Death is near and it will visit our bliss;
with my last breath you will hear:
!But, I have you, my love!
