Place me as a seal over your heart,
As a seal on your arm.
For love is strong as death,
It's jealousy unyielding as the grave.
It burns like blazing fire, like a mighty flame
Place me as a seal on your heart
Many waters cannot quench love,
For love is strong as death.
Rivers cannot sweep love away
Place me as a seal upon your heart
