THE AWAKENING
THE AWAKENING
At night, in dream,I saw those fields round homeAgleam.Drenched all with dewBeneath day’s newest domeOf gold and blue.All night—All night they shone for me, and thenCame light.And suddenly I woke, and lovely joy!I was at home, with the fields gold as whenI was a boy.Thus shall all men rise up at last to see,Their dearest dreams golden reality.

At night, in dream,
I saw those fields round home
Agleam.
Drenched all with dew
Beneath day’s newest dome
Of gold and blue.
All night—All night they shone for me, and thenCame light.And suddenly I woke, and lovely joy!I was at home, with the fields gold as whenI was a boy.
All night—
All night they shone for me, and then
Came light.
And suddenly I woke, and lovely joy!
I was at home, with the fields gold as when
I was a boy.
Thus shall all men rise up at last to see,Their dearest dreams golden reality.
Thus shall all men rise up at last to see,
Their dearest dreams golden reality.
