Big Moon!

On the clearest nights
Your face I can see
And in silence from my room
I can’t hide
A tear…
That I can see running on my cheek

Beautiful moon
I look at your light at dusk
Your great glow
In the lake you can see

A shadow in the distance
We can see
Is a fisherman
In his boat with his face
Towards the moon will be
Until sunrise

Big moon
Beautiful moon
Wonderful clear
You light up the night
And you make it less scary

Big moon
So giant
I can’t stop looking at you
Big bright moon
I don’t lose my way
It is clearer and constant

I have no fear
When I can watch you
In the night of the big moon
Clear moon I advance without being scared

And those hidden shadows
That seem to form
With the light of the big moon
May dissipate

And the shine of the big moon
Will be in the night
And those shadows
They can no longer catch me

Looking to the sky
We can be surprised
With that immense light
That was seen
Of the full moon
Big moon
That shone until dawn
