\nik tankje Jo God foar dizze fol ferbazing
\ndei:foar de grienljeppen beamgeasten deropta
\nen in azueren wiere dream fan loft;foar elts ding
\ndat natuerlik is en \u00fbneinich is en ja<\/p>\n
(ik dy\u2019t ferstoarn bin krij hjoed it libben wer,
\nen dit is de sinne syn bertedei;dit is de berte
\ndei fan libben en fan leafde en wjukken:fan blier
\nen grut it barren fan de ierde s\u00fbnder swetten)<\/p>\n
hoe kin wat priuwt taast heart sjocht
\nwat azemet wat\u2013optild \u00fat it nee
\nfan alle neat\u2013in minske meast docht
\ntwivelje oan net foar te stellen Jo?<\/p>\n
(de earen fan myn earen ha no gjin sliep en
\nde eagen fan myn eagen binne no iepen)<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
i thank You God for most this amazing
\nday:for the leaping greenly spirits of trees
\nand a blue true dream of sky;and for everything
\nwhich is natural which is infinite which is yes<\/p>\n
(i who have died am alive again today,
\nand this is the sun\u2019s birthday;this is the birth
\nday of life and of love and wings:and of the gay
\ngreat happening illimitably earth)<\/p>\n
how should tasting touching hearing seeing
\nbreathing any\u2013lifted from the no
\nof all nothing\u2013human merely being
\ndoubt unimaginable You?<\/p>\n
(now the ears of my ears awake and
\nnow the eyes of my eyes are opened)<\/p>\n
