POEMS AND SONGS
Now our soul’s echoes abounding
Soar in the blue,
In the sun-shimmering blue,
High where your silvery song-notes are
sounding.
Smile on your labor now lightened,
You who in winter perfected
Seeds to be sown!
All that your courage has brightened,
All that your pity protected,
Now it is grown;
Over your shoulders upswinging,
Folds round your frame,
Bringing in roses your name,
Joyous the sprite of your poetry bringing.
Onward our life is now marching,
Banner-like high thoughts are flying,
Lifted to view.
One ’mid the foremost o’erarching
Leads where the pathway is lying, —
It came from you!
Runes of our past with their warning
Carved on its shaft,
Show us the spring you have quaffed,
Leading our land to the light of the morning, ©
