The Surprise

THE SURPRISE

I dreamt I saw you yesternight,
And claspt my hands about your eyes,
Nor dared to venture in your sight
Until you pardoned the surprise.

So take my letter, Valentine,
My name and mission quickly guess
I fear to offer word or sign;
I wait until you whisper "Yes."

Heinrich Heine.
