Silvery moon in the velvet sky Your light shines bright in the heavens Over the world, wandering Gazing into our dwellings Over the world, wandering Gazing into human dwellings Oh, once in awhile, stay with me Tell me where is my love Oh, once in awhile, stay with me Tell me where is my love Tell him, oh, tell him, silver moon That in my arms, I enfold him Tell him he dreams to entangle me Even if only for a moment Tell him in dreams to think of me Even if just for a moment Oh, once in awhile, stay with me Tell me where is my love Oh, once in awhile, stay with me Tell me where is my love [?] Dear moon, shine for him Oh, shine for him
