Dawn Denies the Night

D-awn denies the night, 
O-ne flame is in view; 
L-et the dusk and twilight 
L-eave far away from 
Y-ou. 

N-ew dawn denies the night, 
E-ighth of April Saturday; 
P-ouring rain disappears, 
O-nce the sun comes your way. 
M-orn denies the night, 
U-nder the wide blue sky; 
C-oal clouds all become white, 
E-vening chill passes by. 
N-eath the burning beacon, warmth sets things aright; 
O-nly when the dark ends, dawn denies the night.
