Say what is love

Say What Is Love—To Live In Vain

To Live & Die & Live Again

Say What Is Love—Is It To Be

In Prison Still & Still Be Free

Or Seem As Free—Alone & Prove

The Hopeless Hopes of Real Love

Does Real Love On Earth Exist

Tis Like A Sun beam On The Mist

That Fades & No Where Will Remain

& Nowhere Is Oertook Again

Say What Is Love—A Blooming Name

A Rose Leaf On The Page Of Fame

That Blooms Then Fades—To Cheat No More

& Is What Nothing Was Before

Say What Is Love—What E'er It be

It Centre's Mary Still With Thee
