The Early Morning
English source:
Hilaire Belloc
The moon on the one hand, the dawn on the other:
The moon is my sister, the dawn is my brother
The moon on my left and the dawn on my right
My brother, good morning: my sister, good night.
The moon is my sister, the dawn is my brother
The moon on my left and the dawn on my right
My brother, good morning: my sister, good night.
