Pierce Deeply, Cupid

I stand beneath a moon so bright
and ask for you to hear my plight 

I yearn to know my love's delights
for that, I'd wait a thousand nights 

My plea is gentle and polite 
my wish is simple and forthright

I need your help, oh wondrous sprite
to bind our hearts, forever tight 

I pray my lover's heart's your sight
and trust your aim be true and right 

I beg you, stretch your bow string tight
and send your arrow on its flight

Pierce deeply, Cupid, this I write
and make our love come true this night
