Awake, O world

Awake, O world, to dawn’s resplendent light,
Where shadows yield to morning’s gentle kiss,
And stars retreat before the coming bright,
As night dissolves in hues of amber bliss.

Where skies are painted with a golden brush,
And every leaf and blade in morning’s sight,
Rejoices in the dawn’s soft, tender hush.

Awake, O world, to dawn’s resplendent light,
Where dreams of night give way to day’s embrace,
And all the earth, in morning’s gentle might,
Awakens to the sun’s warm, radiant grace.
