The sky fills with light
And the sun stars to set
The sun dips down
Behind the mountains

Night comes on
Darkness and all
When the sun is gone
The stars start to shine

The beginning of night
And the moon comes out
The sound of night
The fragrant smell

The stars in the sky
The moon shining bright
The soft gentle breeze
The stillness of night

But the sun will come again
And rise another time
Chasing out the darkness
And filling earth with sunshine.
