Lady Earth

The night awakens, the earth dreams,
the moon wears his silver robe,
As thanks to her1 he sew
the most beautiful dress with sparkling stars
the most beautiful dress with sparkling stars
 
The wind, he blows so quiet and laughs
Gives us as a gift a cradle of snow
with clouds and songs in the sea,
made out of silver dream-stuff,
made out of silver dream-stuff.
 
[Refrain:]
Far as the waves
Far as the night
Far as the waves
she rocks you gently.
 
The earth dreams of the first light,
until the morning awakens us softly
But now the night has covered us
Sleep well, my sweet child,
sleep well, my sweet child.
 
[Refrain]
Far as the waves
Far as the night
Far as the waves
she rocks you gently.
 
The night awakens, the earth dreams,
the moon wears his silver robe,
As thanks to her1 he sew
the most beautiful dress with sparkling stars
the most beautiful dress with sparkling stars
 
  • 1. a. b. it's unclear to me if the night or the earth is being thanked here
