Louisa Stuart Costello (Луиза Стюарт Костелло)

Song (I will not ask one glance from thee)

I will not ask one glance from thee,
  Lest, fondly, I should linger yet,
And all thy scorn and cruelty
  In that entrancing glance forget.

I may not, dare not, hear thee speak
  In music's most persuasive tone,
Lest the sweet sound to joy awake,
  And I forget 'tis sound alone!
