Circle-around star-dance
(First part)
Stars glowing like an ember,
They’re spinning side by side,
Out of nothing they’d render
Hot with longing, deep inside.
With much love they did ascend
Since the world was first conceived,
Everyone for his/her friend
Burning radiant to retrieve.
Up he shines so plainly,
Light-and-glow, he ne’er lacks,
Follows her incessantly
With a frightening attack.
Since they never can comply
Star a star can’t reach or catch
Round and round the endless sky
To and fro, they ne’er attach
