An African Love Song Lyrics by Samuel Coleridge-Taylor

African Romances, Op. 17

0

My heart to thy heart
\nMy hand to thine;
\nMy lip to thy lips
\nKisses are wine
\nBrewed for the lover in sunshine and shade;
\nLet me drink deep, then, my African maid
\n
\nLily to lily
\nRose unto rose;
\nMy love to thy love
\nTenderly grows
\nRend not the oak and the ivy in twain
\nNor the swart maid from her swarthier swain\n\n
