From the dazzling dark comes our pure new year
A performance both liturgical and spare
Candle light in darkness,ancient ,new
Illuminated shadows of despair
Enter in the ones who loss can bear
Do not cross them out, nor make them skew
The performance,ah liturgical , ah spare
From the dazzling dark comes our new year
When will be the last of my own few?
lluminate and fear not bleak despair
We do not let the fear of feelings bare
Abbreviate the pleasure , lose the clue.
A performance mute, liturgical and spare
Candles in the darkness, how so fair?
Dark and light combine, Da Vinci drew
Eliminate excesses of despair
In the little crib the light was blue
Another, holier world is here and now
A performance both liturgical and spare
Illuminated shadows of despair
How my heart sings
