Beautiful Tempest
O beautiful tempest,
Thou art my sweet unrest.
Day and night longeth my heart,
For where thy loveliness art
—If only it could just with thee
In sweet terror always be.
O beautiful tempest,
What a friend thou art!
Oft in those acts of thine
Lingereth this awe of mine.
Thy lightnings, Thy thunders...
All but my unending wonders.
To the fearful, a horror;
But to me, an awesome mirror.
O beautiful tempest,
A wonder beyond wonders!
