During quiet moonlit nights,

During busy sun-kissed days,

During chilly winters frosted,

During soothing springs balmy,

When deafening silence threatens,

When dulcet sounds resonate,

In the prosaic words that dangle,

In the rhymed verses woven,

During pain and hardship,

During all moments mirthful,

Whether you are miles away,

Or in my embrace,

My heart beats for thee,

And yours never stops beating for me.
