For since I am not where I love – Modernized Edition

For since I am not where I love
          how can I comfort find,
But only in the Song of Love
          by love to me assigned?

And in whatsoe’er¹ that word² is writ
          it yields a silver sound.
But if that word I miss in it,
          methinks I want my ground.
