Let love unite you, soft and tender
Convenience marriage never seemed so great
And in chill nights of cold December
You’ll find your gladness in embrace of fate
Let love unite you, let it be your guard
And you will never face the dreadful pain
So after daylight labors loving heart
Will gravitate you back at home again
Let love unite you, make your solemn vow,
Don’t listen gossips, rumors and dispraise.
It’s only you who make your garden grow
And flowers, bright and blossom, love may raise.
Because love brings into daylight
For parents’ joy, in wooden cradles -
With pretty faces, good inside -
The sons and daughters – little angels.
