The world created in an eye of fire Forever joyous, forever renewed! Touch but in yourself one divine desire And live: forever joyous, forever renewed! 5 Flowers tumble into wreaths, and urns Though clotted with rank weeds and tears The steady heart may overturn Spilling Love from dust, rescinding years! Prophecies are sweetest in their day, 10 Manifesting first the heart that speaks them; Above dull Empire's crumbling sway Whisper wanted loves their sweet conclusions. Here we touch who had brief parting, Ariel lives kissing bliss immortal, 15 Straying into light falling from us As pulsant breaths from loved lips May fall blessed and blessing best. The world created in an eye of fire Forever joyous, forever renewed! 20 Touch but in yourself one divine desire And live: forever joyous, forever renewed!
