Lunar baby   Glooming shadows   cover you softly where you rest   on the mossy ground      Bathing in dew you dwell   Do not fear, the sparrows   will guard your nest      Until October storms arise   In autumnal equinox,   maple leaves are falling   and caress your body      In the deepest forest you lie,   pale and alone   Leaves conceal your skin,   even your bright eyes are hidden      Sparrows cannot see you now   You do not manage on your own,   and soon the frost will   penetrate your tender body      Snow is falling in winter   Flakes of crystal snow   land on your sweet brow   A star has fallen
