Space rolls to-day her splendour round! / Unbridled, spurless, without bound, / Mount we upon the wings of wine / For skies fantastic and divine!

Let us, like angels tortured by / Some wild delirious phantasy, / Follow the far-off mirage born / In the blue crystal of the morn.

And gently balanced on the wing / Of the wild whirlwind we will ride, / Rejoicing with the joyous thing.

My sister, floating side by side, / Fly we unceasing whither gleams / The distant heaven of my dreams.
