Cloud maidens that float on for ever, + 

Dew-sprinkled, fleet bodies, and fair, + 

Let us rise from our Sire’s loud river, + 

Great Ocean, and soar through the air + 

To the peaks of the pine-covered mountains where the pines hang as tresses of hair. + 

Let us seek the watch-towers undaunted, + 

Where the well-watered corn-fields abound, + 

And through murmurs of rivers nymph-haunted + 

The songs of the sea-waves resound; + 

And the sun in the sky never wearies of spreading his radiance around. + 

Let us cast off the haze + 

Of the mists from our band, + 

Till with far-seeing gaze + 

We may look on the land. + 
