Will there really be a "Morning"?
Is there such a thing as "Day"?
Could I see it from the mountains
If I were as tall as they?
Has it feet like Water lilies?
Has it feathers like a Bird?
Is it brought from famous countries
Of which I have never heard?
Oh some Scholar! Oh some Sailor!
Oh some Wise Men from the skies!
Please to tell a little Pilgrim
Where the place called "Morning" lies!
The heart of this woman beats in every word she pens. That last stanza has to be the most well-written closure to a poem ever.

Why does she refer to herself as a " Pilgrim" min the last stanza?
I love this song so much, I sang the song in choir, it is fun to sing
