Lyrics:

As A Single Star Glides Swiftly Down The Night
a Soft Wetting Note Issues From The Time-Worn Flute
frowning Slightly The Herald Listens Wistful Across The Night
and From Way Back Behind The Day Comes The Echoed Answer

the Day Advances Oh So Softly
his Shadow Lengthens And His Voice Is Mute, But Clear His Flute
and Sadly Walks Forward Followed By The Day
herald Of Morning Walks Across The Earth Eternally, Oh

and Somewhere In The Black Distance, Another Herald Puts Down His Flute
and The Dewy Dawn Creeps On And The Night Withdraws

the Day Advances Oh So Softly
his Shadow Lengthens And His Voice Is Mute, But Clear His Flute
and Sadly Walks Forward Followed By The Day
herald Of Morning Walks Across The Earth Eternally, Oh
