From thee, thou deathless one,

I wait for life.

From thee, thou flowery springtide, moon but two weeks old,

From thee, my guardian angel,

I wait for life.

With joyous smiles thy face doth shine.

I would not change thy glance against the throne of all the world.

From thee I wait for life.

Rose of the mountain, wet with the dew of dawn!

Nature’s chief favourite! Hidden treasure house!
