THE RSING OF THE MOON (Sean Tyrell)

1. As we wander through the Universe on this dark winter's night,
The children all are dancing and the stars are shining bright,
One more word must now be spoken out, sung to an old tune,
Let's be friends this new year coming at the rising of the moon.

2. As we gaze unto the stars that shine with wonder in our eyes,
Will we just destroy the planet or is peace to be the prize,
'cause the wail of fighting nations dims the beauty of the tune,
Let's all dance the dance of freedom at the rising of the moon.
At the rising of the moon, at the rising of the moon,
Let's all dance the dance of freedom at the rising of the moon.

3. May the wisdom of the ancients with their messages and signs,
Come shine on our tomorrows with the magic of the time,
Like the star that shone on the Wise Men like the dawn that's coming soon,
It's the truth that guides us onwards at the rising of the moon.

4. We can live within God's garden if we tend it with our care,
We can understand the meaning and the motives of the fare,
Though we stumble through the darkness trying far too much too soon,
Let's all stand up and be counted at the rising of the moon.
At the rising of the moon, at the rising of the moon,
Let's all stand up and be counted at the rising of the moon.
