Child of the Moon

Smiling child
Dancing in the moonlight
Laughing and smiling to the stars above
Play carelessly for as long as you can
For tomorrow will bring
Another beginning
And another end

Sing to them
Those who thrive in the night
They who play in the darkness
Only then will they be happy
And shall the evil be chased away
Keep them at bay
Keep them at bay
Until the sun chases the darkness away
To bring another day

Then you, too
Shall sleep through the day
Through the light
In the sacred fields of heaven
Without a worry
None can harm you there
While you slumber in the light

And when you wake again
The sun will be gone again
And the darkness will cover the field
And the moon will purify the darkness
And you shall dance and play
And sing the night away
Peace and harmony depend on you
To chase the evil away
And keep hope in the hearts of all
Who dwell in the night and play
Along with you, child of the moon
Kin to the stars
Light in the darkness

So dance, child
Play and laugh and make merry
Keep the evil away
Until again comes
The light of day
