Dreamer of dreams—dreamer of golden dreams,

Explorer of the rainbow-lands of yore,

Columbus of Arcadian Continents,

Poetic founder of Utopian states.

Dreamer of dreams? Dreamer of only dreams?

A master worker with the mind and hand

Who made the beautiful and useful wed,

An alchemist who turned all work to art.

Dreamer of dreams? Maker of wondrous things?

A knight in mortal combat for a cause,

A sower of emancipation’s seed,

A master builder of a better world.
