Bask In the Moonlight

Oh dear child, no crying tonight
Don't get tied up
With the heart and mind's fight

Dear child, look towards the moon
Let the illumination penetrate your soul
It will all be better soon

Oh dear child, set your eyes on the moon's glow
Vision your happiness
And just let go

Dear child, let go of your worldly desire
Open your heart and mind
Soon the conflicts will retire
