Original text and translations

English text

Hail, golden morn!
Thy welcome rays appearing,
With loveliness, endow the earth,
And make it fair to see.

Hail, golden morn!
For shadows now are clearing,
And nature dons her fairest garb,
In compliment to thee!

Hail, golden morn!
The songsters all are singing
Their carols sweet in gratitude,
their carols sweet in gratitude,
On every bush and tree.

Hail. golden morn!
The flowers their scents are flinging,
Upon the breeze that softly blows,
As offerings to thee!
