| - | |
| Do I press thee to my heart | B |
| In the night of distance far | A |
| - | |
| What deep gulf what bitter smart | B |
| Yes 'tis thou indeed at last | C |
| - | |
| Of my joys the partner dear | D |
| Mindful though of sorrows past | C |
| - | |
| I the present needs must fear | D |
| - | |
| When the still unfashion'd earth | E |
| - | |
| Lay on God's eternal breast | F |
| He ordain'd its hour of birth | E |
| - | |
| With creative joy possess'd | F |
| Then a heavy sigh arose | G |
| - | |
| When He spake the sentence quot Be quot | F |
| And the All with mighty throes | G |
| - | |
| Burst into reality | F |
| - | |
| And when thus was born the light | F |
| - | |
| Darkness near it fear'd to stay | F |
| And the elements with might | F |
| - | |
| Fled on every side away | F |
| Each on some far distant trace | H |
| - | |
| Each with visions wild employ | I |
| Numb in boundless realm of space | H |
| - | |
| Harmony and feeling void | F |

| Dumb was all all still and dead | F |
| - | |
| For the first time God alone | J |
| Then He form'd the morning red | F |
| - | |
| Which soon made its kindness known | J |
| It unravelled from the waste | F |
| - | |
| Bright and glowing harmony | F |
| And once more with love was grac'd | F |
| - | |
| What contended formerly | F |
| - | |
| And with earnest noble strife | K |
| - | |
| Each its own Peculiar sought | F |
| Back to full unbounded life | K |
| - | |
| Sight and feeling soon were brought | F |
| Wherefore if 'tis done explore | L |
| - | |
| How why give the manner name | M |
| Allah need create no more | L |
| - | |
| We his world ourselves can frame | M |
| - | |
| So with morning pinions bright | F |
| - | |
| To thy mouth was I impell'd | F |
| Stamped with thousand seals by night | F |
| - | |
| Star clear is the bond fast held | F |
| Paragons on earth are we | F |
| - | |
| Both of grief and joy sublime | N |
| And a second sentence quot Be quot | F |
| - | |
| Parts us not a second time | N |
