The birds love in the shade
All creations slept and smiled
Give me light, give me pride, beam on me
Sweet dreams, pleasent beams
But i'm bereaved of light
Give me light, give me pride, beam on me
Angels in the sky, they give me light
They beam forth brightness on a darkened world
A holy angel, he guards my bed
Reach me your mighty hand!
I can't choose but grief destroy
The birds love in the shade
All creations slept and smiled
Weeping tears on infant's tear
Happy silent moony beams!
