Ah! sweet mystery of life, at last I've found thee
Ah! At last I know the secret of it all
All the longing, seeking, striving, waiting, yearning
The idle hopes, the joys and burning tears that fall
For 'tis love, and love alone, the world is seeking
And it's love, and love alone, I've waitted for
And my heart has heard the answer to it's calling
For it is love that rules for evermore
