Читать книгу Pop Sonnets: Shakespearean Spins on Your Favourite Songs - Erik Didriksen - Страница 15

Each night I close my eyes to sleep, assured

that in my dreams I’ll see once more thy face;

and thus I know thy soul hath still endured

beyond this world’s ephemeral embrace.

I know not if thy soul stays at my side

or if it every night from Heaven leaves.

No matter where it lives, thy love abides

within me, and again there life achieves.

Thy presence hath my courage wholly steel’d;

thy spirit’s overtaken all my fears.

To Father Time our love will never yield;

it shall remain unshaken o’er the years.

Although thy image fades at th’ break of dawn,

my heart, with thee inside, will e’er go on.

Celine Dion, ‘My Heart Will Go On’
