- Fate has been cruel and order unkind,
- how can I have sent you away?
- The blame was my own, the punishment,
- yours, the harmony’s silent today.
- But into the stillness, I’ll bring you a song,
- and I will your company keep.
- Till your tired eyes and my lullabies,
- have carried you softly to sleep.
- Once did a pony who shone like the sun,
- look out on her kingdom and sigh.
- She smiled and said: “Surely, there is no
- pony so lovely and so well beloved as I.”
- So great was her reign and so brilliant her
- glory, that long was the shadow she cast,
- which fell dark upon the young sister she loved,
- and grew only darker as days and nights passed.
- Soon did that pony take notice that others
- did not give her sister her due.
- And neither had she loved her as she deserved,
- she watched as her sister’s unhappiness grew.
- But such is the way of the limelight, it
- sweetly takes hold of the mind of its host,
- and that foolish pony did nothing to stop, the
- destruction of one who had needed her most.
- Lullay moon princess, goodnight sister mine,
- rest now in moonlight’s embrace.
- Bear up my lullaby, winds of the earth, through
- cloud and through sky and through space.
- Carry the peace and the coolness of night,
- and carry my sorrow in kind.
- Luna, you’re loved so much more than you
- know, may troubles be far from your mind,
- and forgive me for being so blind.
- The years now before us, fearful and unknown,
- I never imagined I’d face them on my own.
- May these thousand winters swiftly pass, I pray,
- I love you, I miss you all these miles away.
- May all your dreams be sweet tonight,
- safe upon your bed of moonlight.
- And know not of sadness, pain or care,
- and when I dream, I’ll fly away and meet
- you there, sleep, sleep, sleep.
