I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings; Sunward I’ve climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth of sun-split clouds, — and done a hundred things You have not dreamed of — wheeled and soared and swung High in the sunlit silence. Hov’ring there, I’ve chased the shouting wind along, and flung My eager craft through footless halls of air . . . Up, up the long, delirious burning blue I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace Where never lark, or ever eagle flew — And, while with silent, lifting mind I’ve trod The high untrespassed sanctity of space, Put out my hand, and touched the face of God. www.latvianvoices.lv  Style.display='';$(this).getParent().Style.display='none';">less

Enno ei gong fekk eg isen at sjå frå landet at fljota. Snjoen at bråna og fossen i å at fyssa og brjota. Graset det grøne eg enno ein gong fekk skoda med blomar; Enno eg høyrde at vårfuglen song mot sol og mot sumar. Ei gong eg sjølv i den vårlege eim, som mettar mitt auga, Ei gong eg der vil meg finna ein heim og symjande lauga. Alt det, som våren i møte meg bar og blomen, eg plukkad', Federnes åndir eg trudde det var, som dansad' og sukkad'. Derfor eg fann millom bjørkar og bar i våren ei gåta; Derfor det ljod...    Style.display='';$(this).getParent().Style.display='none';">less
