Measure Me, Sky! lyrics

Measure me, sky!
Tell me I reach by a song
Nearer the stars;
I have been little so long!
 
Weigh me, high wind!
What will your wild scales record?
Profit of pain,
Joy by the weight of a word!
 
Horizon, reach out!
Catch at my hands, stretch me taut,
Rim of the world;
Widen my eyes by a thought!
 
Sky, be my depth,
WInd, be my width and my height,
World, my heart's span;
Loneliness, wings for my flight!
