I attempt from love's sickness to fly in vain

Since I am myself my own fever

Since I am myself my own fever and pain

I attempt from love's sickness to fly in vain

Since I am myself my own fever

Since I am myself my own fever and pain

No more now

No more now fond heart with pride no more swell

Though canst not raise forces

Though canst not raise forces enough to rebel

I attempt from love's sickness to fly in vain

Since I am myself my own fever

Since I am myself my own fever and pain

For love has more power and less mercy than fate

To make us seek ruin

To make us seek ruin and love those that hate

I attempt from love's sickness to fly in vain

Since I am myself my own fever

Since I am myself my own fever and pain
