Rise, fair goddess of the dawn,
Ope thy gates with rosy finger,
Mists that veil the smiling morn
Round thy golden portals linger:
See the stars before thee fleeting,
Sable night, in fear retreating,
Hides her terrors from thine eyes:
Goddess of the dawn, arise!

When the first pale light appears,
Earth is bathed in dewy show'rs,
Brightly shine 'mid smiles and tears,
Wake to life the blushing flow'rs.
Rosy clouds before thee sending,
Glowing colours softly blending,
Clothe with light the eastern skies:
Goddess of the dawn, arise!
