Light shines, the heaven awakes;
The world blue, aglow in white fire,
The joyful earth and the laughing trees
Upon nature's soil, a pleasant hill.
The flowers and the lilies mild
In skin ever pleasant, ever cool
Upon greenish land, upon dewy soil
Fertile with the taste of life.
The birds coos, the raven beams
In sky high and mountain seen
Where pure breath of life sings
Hymns of lovely tune on glade unseen.
Face alight, the humans dance;
Their drums and cymbals blend
With the rhythm of the earth
As they caper and dance of time given
When the harvest is great and bountiful.
