It Hert hat it Oktroai -
Hoop wurket ûnophâldlik
Mar útbrûkt is sy noait -
Oer dizze laden helpstof
Is net it minste wis
Mar har unike ympakt
Siert op wat uzes is -
Hope is a strange invention -
A Patent of the Heart -
In unremitting action
Yet never wearing out -
Of this electric adjunct
Not anything is known
But it’s unique momentum
Embellish all we own -
