Has broken our sleep;

All night we have waited thee, herald of light.

We arise, we rejoice

At thy bidding to leap,

And spray with our laughter the trail of the night.

All night we have waited thee, weary of stars--

The little star-dreams, and the sleep without song;

The deep-brooding slumber of silence that holds

Our melody mute in the uttermost deep.

O Wind of the Dawn, we have waited thee long;
