There is no smile more beautiful than our partner's smile
though the world offers us a thousand other smiles:
those of mischief, those of joy, those feigned and full,
none like that which sincere love reflects.
That smile renews the barren soil in blossom,
it makes hope sprout in the land of love,
and a magic spring is clothed in its colour.
When the loved one before her eyes peeps forth,
and the touch of his hands is a sweet caress,
it is a sun that in his face love harmonises.
This unique smile, in its infinite tenderness,
