The dusk sun sets in the blackening sky

Sinks into the earth extinguishing the light

The moon round and full now reigns

Bathes my being in hallowed shades

In reverence i praise the lunar sphere

Sets my soul free, i feel her so near

Far below, humanity lies inert

While i roam the night, ever alert

Discarding mortality, i follow the queen of night

Exhilarating darkness fills my sight

Celestial beauty

In her shadow all is real

Then do we her nocturnal splendour feel

Oh nocturnal splendour

I revel in her chill embrace

Oh nocturnal splendour

My soul a gift for thee to grace

And now she falls

Downward arc in stead

This greying eve, she'll soon lie dead

On final breath she dissipates

Intruding light has sealed her fate

I can't bear witness to her demise

Return to the flesh, where my crust lies

Solar globe exhumed at dawn

Once more at dusk the moon is born
