We choose to stay together Even though we're far apart, Joined by the strong tether Of the longings of the heart. We could not face the pain That giving up would bring, And so we must sustain Our love despite our suffering. You are my sovereign princess, Whom I will not betray, Nor be your subject any less Because you're far away. Though rivers run as swift as deer And mountains turn to dust, I'll wait as year gives way to year Because I simply must.
