Flow harmonious through this wanting frame Breath, Force, Power, Lord inspire, By God driven, deep this soul's desire, Deep though too this senseless love of dusk.
Firm this faltering will, all dark descry. I hear from some rare avenue beyond Footfalls of unearthly astonishment Breaking out the splendour of the sky.
Stay my hour, Lord, that I may see Awakened children break destruction's grasp, Bridge the lacuna dividing us from thee And bear the body of the morning bride.
End our falsehood, banish burdened mind, Charred hopes born of sacrificial fires Lit in playgrounds rife with truant desires. Through the chemistry of love thy joy transform.
Infra-human forces running wild Guard the gateways leading from the past, The violent overlords tyrannic hate Suppress the God in us, bestill the Child.
Pain's oppression, mad perversion's mock; With Thy sudden winged delight alleviate Anchor fast to one inviolate rock The vital being's passion to slip free.
Raze the crumbling ego's edifice Reweave the tattered cloth I was before, The body will to be the spirit's stand Abreast the flow of man to Superman.
In Savitri, He of the world's desire Speaks of Sun-eyed children though the pyre Precedes and floods precipitate thedawn. Yet his flute in all its rapture signals me.
Late knowing if we languish all may fail Future time may build from dust anew Upon these bones of souls the darkness slew, Another edifice from mud to Man.
