The mystery that haunts its heart and folds | B |
Its form in cogitation deep that holds | B |
The shadow of each myth that dwells | A |
In nature be it Nymph or Fay or Faun | C |
And whispering of them to the dales and dells | A |
It wanders on and on | C |

To it the heaven shows | A |
The secret of its soul true images | A |

Within its breast as every blossom knows | A |
For them to gaze upon | C |

Through it the world soul sends | A |
Its heart's creating pulse that beats and sings | A |
The music of maternity whence springs | A |
All life and shaping earthly ends | A |
From the deep sources of the heavens drawn | C |
Planting its ways with beauty on it wends | A |
On and forever on | C |
