WHEN sunshine met the wave, br Then love was born; br Then Venus rose to save br A world forlorn. br br For light a thousand wings br Of joy unfurled, br And bound with golden rings br The icy world. br br And color flamed the earth br With glad desire, br Till life sprang to the birth, br Fire answering fire, br br And so the world awoke, br And all was done, br When first the ocean spoke br Unto the sun.
