The Moon by my window side
Out of the dark clouds he emerged,
Smiling, from his hiding place,
He seemed to say – I am by your side,
Be brave to face the world,
Wiping my tears and inducing me with
All the good hopes of a better life,
Did he seem to vanish?
Do not leave me, I said in silence;
With a soft touch on my forehead,
Was he blessing me? He seemed to say:
Don't worry dear; I'll keep the promise to return
To take you to the universe of your dreams,
To find it all realized.
Dawn it was; I woke up from my sleep,
To see him, bright and throwing light
To the waking world, Blessed I felt
On this full moon day.
