　O wild West Wind, thou breath of Autumn's being,　　Thou, from whose unseen presence the leaves dead
　　Are driven, like ghosts from an enchanter fleeing,
. d3 u$ _: E# q) c9 H　　Yellow, and black, and pale, and hectic red,
　　Pestilence-stricken multitudes: O thou,
+ m; E4 `' C: b5 U% Y- _5 E) o　　Who chariotest to their dark wintry bed
　　The winged seeds, where they lie cold and low,
. b0 r6 v2 j& U  E& S+ i　　Each like a corpse within its grave, until
1 {( Z  h8 f1 m/ U7 V　　Thine azure sister of the Spring shall blow
& h* K; z  c0 W2 }　　Her clarion o'er the dreaming earth, and fill
2 X/ H. \3 `- m3 j1 }9 s/ P+ n: i　　(Driving sweet buds like flocks to feed in air)
　　With living hues and odours plain and hill:
! j+ q% z" Z, t　　Wild Spirit, which art moving everywhere;
　　Destroyer and preserver; hear, oh hear!
　　Thou on whose stream, mid the steep sky's commotion,
: m+ p, q- c3 a8 Y　　Loose clouds like earth's decaying leaves are shed,
4 \% H7 w! Q: x; r　　Shook from the tangled boughs of Heaven and Ocean,
　　Angels of rain and lightning: there are spread
2 _; V; }! b" B! R2 V1 F. t& C. l　　On the blue surface of thine aery surge,
　　Like the bright hair uplifted from the head
　　Of some fierce Maenad, even from the dim verge
8 ^* b9 |3 M  y　　Of the horizon to the zenith's height,
　　The locks of the approaching storm. Thou dirge
　　Of the dying year, to which this closing night
　　Will be the dome of a vast sepulchre,
% `% g7 X7 N7 F" Y* u+ j, L' X　　Vaulted with all thy congregated might
　　Of vapours, from whose solid atmosphere
　　Black rain, and fire, and hail will burst: oh hear!
) C8 i+ \8 X% M/ l- {9 _0 v　　Thou who didst waken from his summer dreams
　　The blue Mediterranean, where he lay,
0 S6 O% L( T  A& J! C0 Y/ r　　Lull'd by the coil of his crystalline streams,
" s  H) {+ o1 l* U( a( P4 `$ f/ T　　Beside a pumice isle in Baiae's bay,
0 W& E' @, o( w. x　　And saw in sleep old palaces and towers
% Z1 b; L: j( S8 p' a9 K　　Quivering within the wave's intenser day,
" q4 E" [( ^. y% l! A　　All overgrown with azure moss and flowers
　　So sweet, the sense faints picturing them! Thou
　　For whose path the Atlantic's level powers
/ k4 j2 K1 b$ d. [/ X　　Cleave themselves into chasms, while far below
! b  x/ M+ r, A4 p　　The sea-blooms and the oozy woods which wear
$ h6 Q- d8 X5 W- V2 P　　The sapless foliage of the ocean, know
　　Thy voice, and suddenly grow gray with fear,
2 T2 D. s- x. f　　And tremble and despoil themselves: oh hear!
　　If I were a dead leaf thou mightest bear;
　　If I were a swift cloud to fly with thee;
7 P( B, |9 `, S7 ?1 T　　A wave to pant beneath thy power, and share
/ J4 @9 ?) o* X  w# t3 `1 _9 s　　The impulse of thy strength, only less free
　　Than thou, O uncontrollable! If even
　　I were as in my boyhood, and could be
+ T$ }& v! V/ v　　The comrade of thy wanderings over Heaven,
) y8 t6 Y' ~& U' o- `9 [+ U　　As then, when to outstrip thy skiey speed
　　Scarce seem'd a vision; I would ne'er have striven
& S7 U2 k$ i7 ~5 x　　As thus with thee in prayer in my sore need.
  r' X% M; o% {9 \3 G7 w8 B　　Oh, lift me as a wave, a leaf, a cloud!
　　I fall upon the thorns of life! I bleed!
　　A heavy weight of hours has chain'd and bow'd
# \* m7 j- I4 k　　One too like thee: tameless, and swift, and proud.
& z/ u( K  h; T% [" D　　Make me thy lyre, even as the forest is:
　　What if my leaves are falling like its own!
8 N1 R/ t% j3 S, M' A% H　　The tumult of thy mighty harmonies
. [- C- e  O) Y　　Will take from both a deep, autumnal tone,
1 {. ?0 Q) R. s2 R; U　　Sweet though in sadness. Be thou, Spirit fierce,
4 k' \4 j+ C) H9 u" e& W, ?/ P/ r　　My spirit! Be thou me, impetuous one!
; |8 k4 u  x" N; S( n! |+ g　　Drive my dead thoughts over the universe
　　Like wither'd leaves to quicken a new birth!
6 T# k3 \/ G. J3 {7 ^　　And, by the incantation of this verse,
　　Scatter, as from an unextinguish'd hearth
　　Ashes and sparks, my words among mankind!
& D# R$ w6 z. A3 N9 w/ L　　Be through my lips to unawaken'd earth
　　The trumpet of a prophecy! Oh Wind,
　　If Winter comes, can Spring be far behind
