Ay, workman, make me a dream,
A dream for my love.
Cunningly weave sunlight,
Breezes, and flowers.
Let it be of the cloth of meadows.
And — good workman —
And let there be a man walking thereon.

This is the greatest kind of love, selfless love.
Crane wishes for a dream to be woven for his love, and instead of saying "let me be walking thereon" he says "let there be a man walking thereon." It shows that he wants his love to be happy, even if it's not with him. It is the kind of love we should all strive to achieve.
