The moon has lost her earring

The moon has lost her earring
And can’t find it anywhere,
The night is very dark now
She knows she will need some help.

¡Oh! How sad I can see the moon now,
because she isn’t going to shine,
she has lost her diamond earring
now she’ll never be so bright.

She goes to her friend the sun,
Seeking for light and help.

The sun says: “It’s pretty early, my darling
You really will have to wait”.

The moon is very sad now
And starts crying with a frown.
One-tear drops down, then another,
This rain will not stop right now.
One-tear drops down, then another,
This rain will not stop right now,
It won’t stop at least for now.

Every drop builds up a cascade
That the earring finds on its way,
And it reaches with such strength
That it crashes right into earth;
Breaking in a thousand pieces
That fly and fly away
And end up right on the sky.

It is said, that every broken piece is a star now
That keeps the moon feeling bright and happy,
And the night is not so dark anymore,
And her earring she won’t miss again,
And forever she will shine.

And forever she will shine.
