MUSICIANS wrestle everywhere:
All day, among the crowded air,
I hear the silver strife;
And—waking long before the dawn—
Such transport breaks upon the town 5
I think it that “new life!"

It is not bird, it has no nest;
Nor band, in brass and scarlet dressed,
Nor tambourine, nor man;
It is not hymn from pulpit read, 10
The morning stars the treble led
On time’s first afternoon!

Some say it is the spheres at play!
Some say that bright majority
Of vanished dames and men! 15
Some think it service in the place
Where we, with late, celestial face,
Please God, shall ascertain!

Explanation:

In the 1st stanza, the poet expresses her feelings as a musician. She states that music is existing everywhere in this universe and if we were sensitively attuned, we might be able to listen beyond all the regular sounds like noises of waking town, church hymns, brass bands or singing birds.

She listens to something that is transporting or transcendentally beautiful that are beyond the terrestrial noises. Her way of listening to the sounds of the crowd all the day long, brings bliss or joy.

She hears rapturous noise even before she wakes up, before dawn and she defines this must be the dawning of a "new life."
