Thou art the sky and thou art the nest as well.
O thou beautiful, there in the nest
is thy love that
encloses the soul with colours and sounds and odours.
There comes the morning with the golden basket in her right hand bearing the
wreath of beauty, silently to crown the earth.
And there comes the evening over the lonely meadows deserted by herds, through
trackless paths, carrying cool draughts of peace in her golden pitcher from the
western ocean of rest.
But there, where spreads the infinite sky for the soul to take her flight in,
reigns the stainless white radiance. There is no day nor night, nor form nor
colour, and never, never a word.
