Oh when the sun shines

and the earth fades and pines

in that lustre

where shadows cluster,

and its head dimly heaves

shrouded in shadowy leaves –

come hither, come hither

you white-feet together

together the hands, the feet –

laugh-toothed

blue-eyed

blond-high

silver-word keening one,

lined head-leaning one

backwards up to the sky –

sweet, sweet, slowly fly

through the sun’s first glow

in the tall hedgerow

of sun – sweet sweet slowly goes by,

don’t pass too soon, pass, pass, the sky

still hangs trembling behind you –

forever longing for you

forever, forever – don’t fly too fast –

as you pass

I stretch out my arms

in longing, in longing

I stretch out my arms,

don’t fly too fast.
