The Queen of the Night would keep her watch

It was her duty to ever guard this silent realm

But in her mind was her lover, her pining lover

She loved too much to let go


"Every day he blesses me with strength

He gives me everything I have, my light and power

I can only rule because of my lover

What sorrow I cannot give back!"


"And yet, I can grace his people with my gifts

I hold their night steady

All their life light comes from him, passed through me as well

I can return a gift by giving mine to his people."


The love of the Moon brought her pain

But she endured in her faithful ways

Forever loving, the sentimental Moon

Her pain, her love, she gave up all for her lover
