" There is a whisper on the night-wind, there's a star agleam to guide us,
And the Wild is calling, calling ... let us go .
Have you suffered, starved and triumphed, groveled down, yet grasped at glory.
Grown bigger in the bigness of the whole?
" Done things " just for the doing, letting babblers tell the story.
The simple things, the true things, the silent men who do things -
Then listen to the Wild - it's calling you ...
Big mountains heaved to heaven, which the blinding sunsets blazon,
Have you strung your soul to silence? Then for God's sake go and do it;
Hear the challenge, learn the lesson, pay the cost.
Have you wandered in the wilderness, alone, silently, lonely ?
Dared the unknown, led the way, and clutched the prize?
Then listen to the Wild - it's calling you !
