Calm and graceful that little star, Glittering, sparkling from afar, A shining beauty, nothing could mar. Tender, shy and clad in white, she casts here blessings left and right,  And tells us: just enjoy the light    **** Yet mother earth! many children cry, Their life is gloomy, the soul is dry, Hit by hunger, and many may die. Help them, Save them, Queen of night, Give them shelter and delight, Give them food, and one small kite. **** Soothe their wounds, wipe their tear,  Give them hope, with no fear,  Keep them pure, honest and dear.         A spark of love please ignite, In our hearts that need a light, Do it, do it, queen of night.  **** I can wander low and high, I can scan the earth and sky, I can reach the human eye. But tell me how to dwell your heart, How to reach your inner sight, How to halt the hate  and fight. **** But nay, with hope, let’s find a way, And every child should have a say, No more such talk as: we and they. In love and hope lies our might, Through human care  we gain our right, Then little star will stay so bright.     May 1998
