\nAs hie \u2019k gjin Ear, sa hearde Ik,
\nOant der in Wurd fol L\u00fbd
\nFan \u2019t Libben ta my kaam, fan fier,
\nEn \u2019k wist, no hear Ik goed –<\/p>\n
As die myn Each it foar in Oar,
\nSa seach Ik, oant in Ding
\nDat ik no ken as Ljocht, omdat
\nIt paste, binnengong.<\/p>\n
As wie \u2019k fan H\u00fbs, sa wenne Ik,
\nInkeld myn Liif wie yn –
\nPas mei\u2019t in Kr\u00eaft my opmurk, waard
\nMyn Kearn in Setting j\u00fbn –<\/p>\n
En Geast gong op Matearje oan,
\n\u201cGoefreon, jo kenne My\u201d,
\nEn Tiid gong \u00fat en brocht it Nijs
\nEn moete Ivichheid<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I heard, as if I had no Ear
\nUntil a Vital Word
\nCame all the way from Life to me,
\nAnd then I knew I heard –<\/p>\n
I saw, as if my Eye were on
\nAnother, till a Thing
\nAnd now I know \u2019twas Light, because
\nIt fitted them, came in.<\/p>\n
I dwelt, as if Myself were out,
\nMy Body but within
\nUntil a Might detected me
\nAnd set my Kernel in –<\/p>\n
And Spirit turned unto the Dust
\n\u201cOld Friend, thou knowest Me\u201d,
\nAnd Time went out to tell the News
\nAnd met Eternity<\/p>\n
