A very mighty king resides on high.
His face beams down upon us from the sky.
We praise him when he’s shining happily,
Reflecting in the azure of the sea.
King Sun, however, toys with us some days.
He hides behind the clouds to make a haze.
And other times he likes to prove how bright
That he can be compared to Luna’s light.
We’ll be in swimsuits, ready for some fun.
King Sun has spoiled it though for everyone.
He scorches us and makes us pray for rain,
But his return we’ll pray for soon again!
Without his rays, we’d see much suffering,
And so we are indebted to our king.
