How astonishing is the chance
Of leaving this world impress a sense
Of natural beauties on us; hallelujah!
I think of green fields
I muse
With the greatest affection on every flower
I have known from my infancy
Hallelujah!
Their shapes and colours are as new to me
As if I had just created them
With a superhuman fancy
Hallelujah!
It is because they are connected
With the most thoughtless and the happiest
Moments of life.
How astonishing is the chance
Of leaving this world impress a sense
Of natural beauties on us!
The simple flowers of our spring
Are what I want to see again
Hallelujah!
