Oh Bright Star

(Oh Bright Star)


                                                 Oh bright star
                                              That shines ahead
                                                  Can you not
                                                   Guide me?
                                                       Like
                                         The lord that you once led
                                                  Can you not
                                                       Show
                                                  Me the way
                                       In my head laid upon thy bed
                                            With dreams instead?
                                                Is my existence
                                                   Not worthy
                                                  Of being fed?
