My revolutionary-minded woman,
My dear, admired, sweet beloved one,
Of Ladies all the best and most bright human,
Who are to me my highest shining sun,
Oh Nancy, I am so enthralled with you,
So deeply struck with joyous love’s desire,
Your mind and body I in one pursue
And will not rest till I have all of you.
There’s neither gain, nor goal, nor aim that’s higher
Than reaching up for you, my heaven’s light,
And so I seek the gold that strikes my sight,
That turns my deepest dreams to leaping fire,
And revolutionizes me to climb
And rise and clasp tour soul sublime!
