The Waking |
| I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow |
| I feel my fate in what I cannot fear |
| I learn by going where I have to go |
| We think by feeling. |
| What is there to know? |
| I hear my being dance from ear to ear |
| I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow |
| Of those so close beside me, which are you? |
| God bless the Ground! |
| I shall walk softly there |
| And learn by going where I have to go |
| Light takes the Tree; |
| but who can tell us how? |
| The lowly worm climbs up a winding stair; |
| I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow |
| Great Nature has another thing to do |
| To you and me, so take the lively air |
| And, lovely, learn by going where to go |
| This shaking keeps me steady. |
| I should know |
| What falls away is always. |
| And is near |
| I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow |
| I learn by going where I have to go |
