Silent sunlight, welcome in
   There is work I must now begin
   All my dreams have blown away
   And the children want to play
   They'll soon remember things to do
   When the heart is young
   And the night is done
   And the sky is blue
  
   Morning songbird, sing away
   Lend a tune to another day
   Bring your wings and choose a roof
   Sing a song of love and truth
   We'll soon remember if you do
   When all things were tall
   And our friends were small
   And the world was new
  
   Sleepy horses, heave away
   Put your backs to the golden hay
   Don't ever look behind at the work you've done
   For your work has just begun
   There'll be the evening in the end
   but till that time arrives
   You can rest your eyes
   And begin again
