Song to the moon

Oh Moon on the deep deep sky
Your light can see far
You roam all the vast world
Looking in the homes of people.
Oh Moon, stay  for a while
Tell me, tell me where my beloved is
Tell him, oh silver Moon,
That my arm embraces him
So he at least for a little while
Remembers me in his dreams.
Give him light on his way.
Tell him, oh tell him who is waiting for him here!
Is the human soul dreaming of me...

Awaken his memories!
Oh Moon, keep shining, keep shining!
