The moon swings down low Gently caressing the calm open sea With its effervescent glow Singing the world a lullaby As it rides across the black night sky Casting its light down upon The mortals asleep below Watching over them And keeping the dark at bay Till once again the moon rides on Making way for his sister the sun, Who will light the world, With her warm, embrace Heating the hearts of those who toil Until once again she leaves the sky Leaving only her brother moon To serve as a beacon of hope And guardian of all who live upon the land Until she once again shines her light upon the world below
