Why is it dark?
Cold and cold
Who has stolen the shining sun?
And conquered the day
Which fairy has spilt the magical sparks everywhere?
The twinkling never stops
The clouds have turned black already.
A beautiful moon, proud of her light,
Doesn’t let me sleep.
I don’t feel sleepy while wondering
How they all came to be.
The night is magic
The most pretty magic.
