When the moon shines

When the moon shines in the East
And all the white doves have been released
A young child will sleep in restful peace

When they've closed Hell's open door
And put an end to every single war
He won't have to worry any more

When they plant the fields in seed
And mankind rids itself of all greed
Then he will have nothing more to need

When freedom's the final song
And whose words have righted ev'ry wrong
His young soul will soar forever on

When the moon shines in the East
And all the white doves have been released
A young child will sleep in restful peace
