I woke up in the morning at the crack of the dawn And saw no light in sky, the light was somewhere gone The water was dark, I could hardly see Where is the Sun, where may it be?
Having looked around but found out the same Some blacky shadow from gloomy hills came It moved forth to swallow up all Our entire world, and the starless night falls.
And wind brought gloom and the fair folk left To sunny places, to native fairy lands I cried alone I begged them to stay But their somber faces said: “we’re away”.
And in the gray air I saw, or it seemed That in a distance some light had gleamed I ran forward nights, what must have been days And finally saw some happy light’s rays.
I was tired and fell, swallowed smell of the ground And suddenly heard some clear high sounds. I finally reached it and opened my eyes: And watched admiringly new Sun’s rise
