I watched the sky turn pink in the east, ending a long and dark night
I watched the golden clouds gather, and gleam under the sun’s seeping light
I listened to the bird songs calling again while the darkness became bright
I felt the whole world alive and breathing through a mesmerizing sight
I closed my eyes and went back in time to that night I saw no end
I recalled that fear, the hopelessness, and all the sick torment
I pondered for a while how I worried in vain thinking this will never end
I saw in mind’s eye, that moonless sky and how my heart wept for a mend
Now I know no matter how long, the night will always ease
No matter how dark the moonless sky, the darkness will always cease
The darkest night is just before the dawn, so wait in patience and see
The sure rising sun in the never-failing dawn will bring you joy and peace
