I wake up in the night

to the starry sky of might

I remember things that happened in the daylight

I held a moment in my hand.

Brilliant as a star

Fragile as a flower, close my eyes for an hour and think,

I who struggle in life, but smile a lot.

I with an empty pocket, but with a heart full of hope

I without possessions, but sees life so wonderful

I who sleeps in a dark house, but walk not in darkness

I who wear faded clothes, but in his eyes I glitter

Those who sing to his name

Those who dwell their life to them

Those with laughter and love so much give

Those who live to righteousness

We, brought happiness with him above

Like a distant star, we bring light to God.
