Lift Me O Spring's Air

Lift me O spring's 
air 
And leave me there 
The crazy cloud 
is 
veiling                  
Like the heaven's 
gigantic-rocks' 
gate;                           
I shall smile at in the 
distance      
And wave my 
hands                   
The guard-angels 
wearing long 
flowery 
gown.                                              
Then leave me 
there 
Across the snowy 
forests                    
In the far north   
In gaints' world:     
I have heard many 
a time                 
From my maternal-
grandfather    
That in the winters' 
mornings 
and evenings 
Young fairies fly 
to Tarsar 
And bath naked--
Dip deep and swim 
And fetch in 
gardens-urns     
The icy blue 
water.           
(Tarsar 
is 
a 
lake 
in 
kashmir, 
across 
the 
dense 
high 
forests in a meadow 
beside 
a mountain)
