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
Thou canst not raise forces
Thou 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
