Who saw the hid beginningsA
When Chaos and Order stroveB
Or who can date the morningC
The purple flaming of loveD
-
I saw the hid beginningsA
When Chaos and Order stroveB
And I can date the morning primeE
And purple flame of loveD
-
Song breathed from all the forestF
The total air was fameG
It seemed the world was all torchesH
That suddenly caught the flameG

-
Is there never a retroscope mirrorI
In the realms and corners of spaceJ
That can give us a glimpse of the battleK
And the soldiers face to faceJ
-
Sit here on the basalt coursesL
Where twisted hills betrayM
The seat of the world old ForcesH
Who wrestled here on a dayM
-
-
-
When the purple flame shoots upN
And Love ascends his throneO
I cannot hear your songs O birdsP
For the witchery of my ownO
-
And every human heartQ
Still keeps that golden dayM
And rings the bells of jubileeR
On its own First of MayM
