Of towering icebergs and glittering floes, The sun of the midnight in luminous rings, Of hopes held at bay by beleaguering snows, Of man in his weakness the fierce ocean sings. Bright over the sky the aurora is red, And crimson as life blood the snowflakes below; Swift updarting streamers of fire overspread All heaven and earth with a roseate glow. OF TOWERING ICEBERGS AND GLITTERING FLOWS THE SUN OF THE MIDNIGHT IN LUMINOUS RINGS OF HOPES HELD AT BAY BY BELEAGUERING SNOWS OF MAN IN HIS WEAKNESS THE FIERCE OCEAN SINGS BRIGHT OVER THE SKY THE AURORA IS RED AND CRIMSON AS LIFE BLOOD THE SNOW FLAKES BELOW SWIFT UPDARTING STREAMERS OF FIRE OVERSPREAD ALL HEAVEN AND EARTH WITH A ROSEATE GLOW
d and half confessed, A nest? Ah, truly now, I would I knew The happy secret of your glee, That joy wherewith you birds are blest, Red-breast! So airy and so light of wing, You soar and sing, I pray, could you not softly fling, My merry minstrel, down to me Some echo of that melody That spills from out your tiny bill? Some trill Of all those liquid tones that ring So full of purest poetry, That rhyme, and chime, and thrill, until They fill These vibrant seas of azure air, Whose blue tides bear Their witching sweetness everywhere? O little master, heed to me! And ah, so true, so tenderly, I’ll learn to sing how lovely grows This rose, Till, by and by, dear heart, I’ll dare To touch some bolder note, maybe, Some chord whence deeper music flows; Who knows? _THE NORTHMEN’S SONG OF THE POLE_ The roar of the seas where the freezing clouds lower, The shriek of the storm-wind, the turbulent tide, The conquering currents, all vaunt of their power, And taunt with the centuries’ secret they hide.  THE NORTHMEN'S SONG OF THE POLE BY EVELING STEIN READ FOR LIBERVOXTA ORG BY SILVESTER LAND THE ROAR OF THE SEAS WHERE THE FREEZING CLOUDS LOWER THE SHRIEK OF THE STORM WIND THE TURBULENT TIDE THE CONQUERING CURRENTS ALL VAUNT OF THEIR POWER AND TAUNT WITH THE CENTURY'S SECRET THEY HIDE
