star of wonder

i call you
from the comet's cradle
i found you
trembling by yourself

when the night falls
lightly on your right-wing shoulder
wonderful know-it-all
slightly when the night gets colder

oh, conscience,
where will you carry me?
i found you
star of terrifying effigies

when the night falls
i carry myself to the fortress
of your glorious cost
oh, I may seek your fortress

when the night falls
we see the star of wonder
wonderful night falls
we see you

we see you there

i see the stars coming out there
coming out there to the yard
i see the stars coming out there
coming out there to my heart...

(repeat...)

... i see the stars coming down there
coming down there to the yard
i see the stars coming down there
coming down there to the yard...

(...those days, days, days run away
like horses over the hills...)
