EN
Every night was long and gloomy, shadows gathered in the air No one ever listened to me, no one wondered did I care None in all the world to love me, none to count that stars that hung Then the moon came out above me and I saw that it was young I wished on the moon for something I never knew Wished on the moon for more than I ever knew A sweeter rose, a softer sky An april day that would not dance away I begged of a star to throw me a beam or two Wished on a star and asked for a dream or two I looked for ev'ry loveliness, it all came true I wished on the moon for you
