Wake up sweetie!
wake up, look around you,
It's morning, it's morning!
Wake up my princess!
Look, look beyond these
Inner shores...see out there,
Lots and lots waiting on
The Wings of time and space
Wake up my morning rose!
Rise above the drag paths
Of hopelessness;
Smile to the seven seas
And wink the worthless away!
It was late before sleep arrived.
The mind played games to
Unseasoned thought
And creation shook when
Your smiles broke!
Wake up then, nale, smile,
Yes, smile again and again,
Let your eyes sing the songs
Of love, even to the drum-beats
Of those lovely lips...
Wake up, goddess of the horn
And bless the day that is this
Day, with the smiles of your grace!
