Mellow moon of heaven

B. Burrows

Miriam (singing).

Mellow moon of heaven.

Bright in blue,

Moon of married hearts,

Hear me, you!

Twelve times in the year

Bring me bliss,

Globing Honey Moons

Bright as this.

Moon, you fade at times

From the night.

Young again you grow

Out of sight.

Silver crescent-curve,

Coining soon,

Globe again, and make

Honey Moon.

Shall not my love last,

Moon, with you,

For ten thousand years

Old and new?
