Nessun Dorma

A gentle hand upon my skin To balm my sleeping soul within A fragile brushing 'gainst my face Adorns my soul with air and grace. The kindest, mildest, tender touch Subdues my soul to mind too much The quaver of my joyful heart As all my anguish blows apart. And in the fluent light of morn A freshness in my soul, reborn, Where thoughts bygone, should I partake, May kiss my brow as I awake.
