The golden sun rising high
Upon a world small and blue.
We watch from below as the sun takes his crown
For upon this day he has all his might
As we bathe in his golden light.
The longest day. The shortest night
A day of wonder, a time of delight.
The crown sits upon the golden king
And in joy our hands are raised. Our voices sing.
Celebrations of happiness
Are often tinged with sadness.
For Thought the light this day has won
Darkness returns, the work to be undone.
The days now will grow shorter
The nights ever so longer.
Until the Oak kings time is done
And the Holly kings reign begun.
