Like some gaunt ghost the tempest wails	A
Outside my door its icy nails	A
Beat on the pane and Night and Storm	B
Around the house with furious flails	A
Of wind from which the slant sleet hails	A
Stalk up and down or arm in arm	C
Stand giant guard the wild beast lair	D
Of their fierce bosoms black and bare	D
My lamp is lit I have no fear	E
Through night and storm my love draws near	E
Now through the forest how they go	F
With whirlwind hoofs and manes of snow	F
The beasts of tempest Winter herds	A
That lift huge heads of mist and low	F
Like oxen beasts of air that blow	F
Ice from their nostrils winged like birds	A
And bullock breasted onward hurled	G
That shake with tumult all the world	G
My lamp is set where love can see	A
Who through the tempest comes to me	A
I press my face against the pane	H
And seem to see from wood and plain	H
In phantom thousands stormy pale	I
The ghosts of forests tempest slain	H
Vast wraiths of woodlands rise and strain	H
And rock wild limbs against the gale	I
Or borne in fragments overhead	J
Sow night with horror and with dread	J
He comes my light is as an arm	C
To guide him onward through the storm	B
I hear the tempest from the sky	K
Cry eagle like its battle cry	K
I hear the night upon the peaks	A
Send back its condor like reply	K
And then again come booming by	K
The forest's challenge hoarse as speaks	A
Hate unto hate or wrath to wrath	L
When each draws sword and sweeps the path	L
But let them rage through darkness far	M
My bright light leads him like a star	M
The cliffs with all their plumes of pines	A
Bow down high heads the battle lines	A
Of all the hills that iron seams	A
Shudder through all their rocky spines	A
And under shields of matted vines	A
The vales crouch down and all the streams	A
Are hushed and frozen as with fear	E
As from the deeps the winds draw near	E
But let them come my lamp is lit	N
Nor shall their fury flutter it	N
Now 'round and 'round with stride on stride	O
In Boreal armor darkness dyed	O
I hear the thunder of their strokes	A
The heavens are rocked on every side	O
With all their clouds and far and wide	O
The earth roars back with all its oaks	A
Still at the pane burns bright my light	P
To guide him onward through the night	P
To lead love through the night and storm	B
Where my young heart shall make him warm	B
