These young flowers Gazing on the earth Our chosen brothers Our chosen sisters Of the spirit They breathe their influences With which the universe Knows itself divine Light of art or nature The rainbows of the flowers The mountains and the waves The night that fears the day Upon this trembling edge Bound in such a way Those imprisoned Where hearts once mingled I dreamt I was that way Dark buds and leaves Where clouds are scattered Where the spirit is mute Innocence, our hearts devotion Upon the surface, that wrinkled image Will find us Then as now Under this universal Sun Radiant - awake Where the winter rains, the wild woods, sing Where the earth and the oceans meet And mourn Us children of the hours
