It’s midnight, and the city’s lights gradually doze off to sleep.
Just when it gets dark and the neighborhood is calm,
The black image is detained when a blue candle is lit.
The powerful scent of the blue raspberry candle slowly diffuses.
It marks the start of the daily mysterious singing.
Heard is a soft, gracious, and enchanting voice.
Up high sits a fair lady on her crescent balcony,
A lady of fair hair, and soft lips emitting a voice of bliss.
She starts singing the song of night.
That mysterious song that she repeats every night,
That is interpreted differently by us mortals each day.
Her voice is low but vastly spreads through the houses.
So dim is her blue candle yet it lights the whole neighborhood.
Nobody knows the site of the gracious singing,
For it’s location is high up in a sky unreachable.
Unreachable for the earthly eyes to sight.
Listening ears would soften to the nightly tune,
And souls would set searching the source.
Hearts of lovers would meet under an ambiance created by her gentle tunes,
And rekindle a lost memory of affection and warmth.
She blows down an amazing grace that slowly awakes all,
Her tender melody alerts and attracts gloomy minds.
The lady of the night sings away her blessings,
And all below are swept away by her charm.
