There were many who say that I will not come But how can I resist a bride As beautiful as you? You are my beloved And I am back I have chosen you Out of all the fair maidens To be my own Now I have the pleasure Of watching you prepare yourself For when I come to take you Back to my Father's house My patient bride My faithful bride All the joy it brings me When you mention my name With love and longing in your heart For me Know this my bride, know this That I long to be with you As much as you long to be with me There were many who say that I will not come But how can I resist A bride as beautiful as you? I will come, my darling I will come And you will see me As I will see you When I finally lift the veil From your eyes When I finally lift the veil From your eyes When I finally lift the veil From your eyes When I finally lift the veil From your eyes When I finally lift the veil From your eyes When I finally lift the veil From your eyes I will lift the veil I will lift the veil
