Oh you shimmer so
against the velvet night
If I were to be with you
You who gleam so
How colossal you would be
I would not recognize you little one
here you are but a grain of sand
and still I watch you with fixed fascination
as you twinkle brightly
gleaming so far away
when you are gone
I shall never know
for in my life you shine,
in my child's you will die
Until the last of your rays
should light upon this earth
I shall watch you all my life
and in death shall join you.
