If you look out your window southerly,
you’ll see the moon most lovely.
You’ll see the glow, even through the clouds
that surround the moon, just like a shroud!

And as you fix your gaze there, southerly,
so shall I; that’s where I’ll be!

And you and I shall have the same view
and it will be as though —
even though the sheets and night are cold —
I’ll be laying next to you.
