A New Day

Awaken your eyes
Every day anew
The song of a bird
Life within renew

The morning dew
Upon a leaf
The morning sun
A thief

Steal away the night
And wake up the day
Crawl out of bed
After you had hit the hay

Get ready for school
Take a shower
There is nobody out
At such an hour

Throw on new clothes
Five in the morning
Somebody wants to find
My heart, Adorning
