A
Serene, I fold my hands and wait,
B
Nor care for wind, nor tide, nor sea;
A
I rave no more 'gainst time or fate,
B
For, lo! my own shall come to me.
 
 
C
I stay my haste, I make delays,
D
For what avails this eager pace?
C
I stand amid the eternal ways,
D
And what is mine shall know my face.
 
 
E
Asleep, awake, by night or day,
B
The friends I seek are seeking me;
E
No wind shall drive my bark astray,
B
Nor change the tide of destiny.
 
 
F
What matter if I stand alone?
G
I wait with joy the coming years;
F
My heart shall reap where it has sown,
G
And garner up its fruit of tears.
 
 
H
The waters know their own, and draw
I
The brook that springs in yonder height;
H
So flows the good, with equal law
I
Unto the soul of pure delight.
 
 
J
The stars come nightly to the sky;
B
The tidal wave unto the sea;
J
Nor time, nor space, nor deep, nor high,
B
Can keep my own away from me.
