Oh Alexis, I tremble,
Seek safety in flight!

Let us fly to a far-off land,
Where peace and plenty dwell –
Where the sigh of the silver strand
Is echoed in every shell.
To the joy that land will give,
On the wings of Love we’ll fly;
In innocence, there to live –
In innocence there to die!
In innocence, there to live – there to die –
There to live and die!
