DIE HEIMKEHR: 8. NIGHT SONG by HEINRICH HEINE

First Line: AND HAVE YOU THOROUGHLY KISSED MY LIPS?
Last Line: GET A GOOD DEAL OF KISSING DONE.
And have you thoroughly kissed my lips?
There was no particular haste,
And are you not ready when evening's come?
There's no @3particular@1 haste.

You've got the whole night before you,
Heart's-all-beloved-my-own;
In an uninterrupted night one can
Get a good deal of kissing done.
