Shining Night lyrics

The sparkling snow

Glimmers in the midnight

An endless rolling blanket

A crystalline purity bounds

Shines and shadows there

The gusts of arctic

They bite and clamour

The icey dust swirls about

In halos of prismatic hues

Defined in lunar light

A full beaming moon

Keeps close to the earth

Summoning the tides

Both colloid and crystalline

Beckoning their shifting

No life is apparent

They shelter somewhere

Bedded from the cold

Finding refuge beyond

Unaware of the wonder

Breezes whisper quietly

Snowflakes fall silently

The moon shines bright

Stars twinkle in multitude

While mortals sleep on
