How Beautiful You Are

High up shines the moon with an entourage of stars Its shimmering rays like silvery gleaming bars Come, sliding, slanting, and crashing down, Making the sky and the earth in loveliness adorn Moon, you are the unrivalled queen of the night. With your charm, the world you greatly delight. To catch a glimpse of your lovely, luminous face To the high heavens, we raise our eager eyes. In the quiescent quietude of a tranquil night In young hearts, love sparks you ignite. Your shining visage greatly thrills every heart. “As the misty moon rides high," our sorrows depart. The young and the old fall under your mesmerizing spell We feel your aura, though in the faraway sky you dwell. In the heavens, we can sight no other sphere on par, And in elation, we whisper – “How beautiful you are!”
