Poet where are you, [unclear: for] Dawn has come to greet you and pay homage?
She has brought in her basket of the First Flush of Dawn a new Hope;
Come, for she is a faithful guest bringing gifts to your door.
The village has already come out to welcome her
And the spring breeze has strewn flowers about her feet.
The jasmine and the Night Queen have perfumed her feet,
Come poet, and welcome the messenger of God!
—Len Samujh.
