As hot as fire burns
As round as the earth turns
Like sun that squints the eye
Like stars fill the night sky
As a tree with water grows
As the wind over ocean blows
Like a desert e’er is dry
Like time does e’er go by
As day does turn to night
As birds do take to flight
Like mountains fill with snow
Like summer comes and goes
As flowers take to bloom
As life does end in tomb
Like waves of oceans crash
Like first love does abash
As winter comes so cold
As you and I grow old
Like nature’s cycles be
This is how I shall love thee
