Faithfully guided, draw near to where the blessing of love shall preserve you! Triumphant courage, the reward of love, joins you in faith as the happiest of couples! Champion of youth, proceed! Jewel of youth, proceed! Flee now the splendour of the wedding feast, may the delights of the heart be yours! This sweet-smelling room, decked for love, now takes you in, away from the splendour. Faithfully guided, draw now near
to where the blessing of love shall preserve you! Triumphant courage, love so pure,
joins you in faith as the happiest of couples!
A piece from Richard Wagner's "Lohengrin". Act 3, Scene 1, "Bridal Song"
