Dawn’s song
Moon guardian I take
your place
The morning
approaches
It is time for me to
sing my song
As the time marches
Night, night, hear my
name
You know what to do,
every day’s the same
Depart and with you
take the stars
Quickly! The time
passes fast!
Now gentle clouds
with sunset blooms
Be quickly spun from
heavenly looms
Dance across the
fiery sky
Behind which sleeping
stars lie!
Quiet ocean wake from
your sleep
And let dolphins from
your surface leap!
Let quick fishes in
your waters dart
And feel the ocean’s
beating heart
Quiet wind it is time
to dance
Faster than a
thrusting lance
Wake the flowers of
the fields and the birds in the trees
Rise quickly morning
breeze!
Now to wake the very
last one
Turn Earth! Turn! To
the rising sun!
Let the world hear
dawn sing!
And jointly welcome
the morning!
There now my song is
done
I give my place to
the sun
And while I slumber
let my song linger on
And fill the souls
with the peace of morn
