Beauty That Is Never Old + 

When buffeted and beaten by life’s storms, + 

When by the bitter cares of life oppressed, + 

I want no surer haven than your arms, + 

I want no sweeter heaven than your breast. + 

When over my life’s way there falls the blight + 

Of sunless days, and nights of starless skies; + 

Enough for me, the calm and steadfast light + 

That softly shines within your loving eyes. + 

The world, for me, and all the world can hold + 

Is circled by your arms; for me there lies, + 

Within the lights and shadows of your eyes, + 

The only beauty that is never old. + 
