Gothic Song

Poem by Gérard De Nerval Period 19th century

Beautiful bride,
I love your tears!
It is the dew
That suits the flowers.

Beautiful things
Have but one spring,
Let us sow roses
On the steps of Time!

Be she dark or fair
Must one choose?
The God of the world
Is Pleasure.

Gérard de Nerval
