English text
1. A patient presence broods
and warms the well-placed nest,
untroubled and alert,
expectant and at rest.
2. She waits because she knows
a process has begun
again there will be life
before her brooding's done.
3. O nesting Spirit, praise
to you who warm the earth,
and every longing heart
that waits again for birth.
4. Your presence nurtures hope,
and hope in time creates
in us a will to bear
the life for which we wait.
