O HOW my heart is beating as her name I keep repeating, <br />And I drink up joy like wine: <br />O how my heart is beating as her name I keep repeating, <br />For the lovely girl is mine! <br />She's rich, she's fair, beyond compare, <br />Of noble mind, serene and kind-- <br />And how my heart is beating as her name I keep repeating, <br />For the lovely girl is mine! <br /> <br />O how my heart is beating as her name I keep repeating, <br />In a music soft and fine; <br />O how my heart is beating as her name I keep repeating, <br />For the girl I love is mine. <br />She owns no lands, has no white hands, <br />Her lot is poor, her life obscure;-- <br />Yet how my heart is beating as her name I keep repeating, <br />For the girl I love is mine!<br /><br />Dinah Maria Mulock Craik<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/mine-38/
