Gold stars and Earth’s silver moon make the night sky rich with their presence,
While shooting stars and streaming comets race each other on endless tracks,
Constellations jump and dance through the abyss of night,
Their picture perfect figures glowing.
Throughout all their heavenly games they dare not make a peep,
For fear that they wake the children from their dream filled sleep.
