Down, down Sun, dip thy light
Into the Ocean’s murky night
But shine, shine again when sleep
Has died and fill the world
With gold and green.
Rise, rise silver Moon, shine
With love upon the maiden’s face
Yet die each dawn in brilliant
Light – your Brother’s gold fire
And Mother’s shade.
Go not into the dark alone, my love
For your path is lit by
Gold and silver; shine, shine
Upon the path you tread and
Dispel shadow, fear and dread.
But go not into the dark alone
For I am following your feet
And heart and show not care
For where I step – the night
Holds no fear for ‘tis well lit.
Dark, dark cover my heart
And disguise my thoughts that none may know
The quiet ticking of my brow,
And go not into the dark alone, but be my guide
Show the way ‘till the morn light shines.
