19、my love; you are friendly, kind, and indulgent; let me know when my heart is off the balance.I understand your silent signs.虽说我的才智小，但我的爱情甚深;你一定要平衡这两方面。在理智跟不上爱情的开展时，爱不能平静。你知道我有多爱你;你友善、温存、宽厚。告诉我，什么时候我的心失去了平衡。我懂得你那无声的暗示。A look from your eyes into mine, a kiss from you upon my lips, instructs me in all,
