Time could never tear their bond

For each loved the other anew each meeting

Growing ever stronger in their bond

Sad was the fate of the Lover and his Moon


Every day he sang her his wild tune

He wove her tall tales

All adventures he witnessed he recounted

This all for his placid, silver white love


And she alone could hear his song

Reaching her through the void of space

In silence she would listen and in silence wish

But never could she return his lonesome calls


Her silence was held, for she ruled the night

Destiny forbade her speak, not a whisper not a sound

In vain she wished to return the call

But her song was never sung aloud
