Lyrics: Anon, probably the composer
In vain you would blow up the fire of love,
Your arts are vain and never can me move.
For, having been deceived, my heart is cold,
And not for baubles to be bought or sold.
Whoever knows me knows that I am free;
And so indeed I ever wish to be.
In vain you would blow up the fire of love,
Your arts are vain and never can me move.
For, having been deceived, my heart is cold,
And not for baubles to be bought or sold.
Whoever knows me knows that I am free;
And so indeed I ever wish to be.
