Waiting For The Moon - John Adorney (约翰·安铎尼)

In the heart of the night

At the edge of a wood

Alone on a branch there sits a bird

With it's head turned to the side

One eye fixed on the sky

Quiet as a breath the moon bird waits

Waiting for the moon to show it's soft silver glow

To the bird who sits waiting in the dark below

Waiting for the moon to rise

For it's light to touch the skies

And fill the moon bird's eyes and it's heart with delight

And so night after night

The moon bird waits

Sitting unaware of the cold winds that blow

And when at last they meet

All across the night

Can be heard the sweet sound of the moon bird's song

Waiting for the moon to show it's soft silver glow

To the bird who sits waiting in the dark below

Waiting for the moon to rise

For it's light to touch the skies

And fill the moon bird's eyes and it's heart with delight
