Distant Time

 I know not from what distant time 
thou art ever coming nearer to meet me.
 
Thy sun and stars can never keep thee hidden from me for aye.
 

In many a morning and eve thy footsteps have been heard 
and thy messenger has come within my heart and called me in secret.
 

I know not only why today my life is all astir, 
and a feeling of tremulous joy is passing through my heart.
 

It is as if the time were come to wind up my work, 
and I feel in the air a faint smell of thy sweet presence.
