In the dark indigo night,
The stars glow alike.
The moon is their god,
And they worship it like their pride.
 
For a while, the pearls were twinkling,
Some planets were shining bright.
I wish to hold those mysteries
In the dark with all my might.
 
Near the satellite, there is a mole,
It shines bright like a magical soul.
But it’s Venus above the Earth’s shores,
It attracts me like a magnetic pole.
 
My eyes lingered over the southern sky,
And the Milky Way was delicate.
It’s like the clusters are reflecting
What’s written in one’s fate.
 
It’s my dream to behold shooting stars,
All alone on a beach, a night so sweet,
Standing where frosty water gleams,
And the waves wash my feet.
