As the dawn was breaking the Sambhur belled

Once, twice, and again!

And a doe leaped up – and a doe leaped up

From the pond in the wood where the wild deer sup.

This I, scouting alone, beheld,

Once, twice, and again!

As the dawn was breaking the Sambhur belled

Once, twice, and again!

And a wolf stole back – and a wolf stole back

To carry the word to the waiting Pack;

And we sought and we found and we bayed on his track

Once, twice, and again!

As the dawn was breaking the Wolf-pack yelled

Once, twice, and again!

Feet in the jungle that leave no mark!

Eyes that can see in the dark – the dark!

Tongue – give tongue to it! Hark! O Hark!

Once, twice, and again!
