The moon is full

As the night draws close

-

The solstice has come

The longest night of the year

-

The stars are shining down

Look, a comet there!

-

And then,

The dawn comes

-

The rising sun

Glowing over the land

-

Streams of gold

Twisting through the sky

-

And at one house

A candle's lit

-

Glowing through the night

Shining through the dark

-

The sun is rising

And the candle blows out.

-

It has stood there

In place of the sun

-

Shining through the night.

Keeping the dark away

-

But now, the sun has come

Back from the place it goes at night

-

And with streams of gold

Dancing in the dawn

-

The dawn has come

The light has returned.
