Light, light up my day

Light, my light, the world-filling light,
the eye-kissing light,
heart-sweetening light!

Light, light up my day Light, light up my day Light, light up my day

Ah, the light dances, my darling, at the center of my life;

Light, light up my day Light, light up my day Light, light up my day

the light strikes, my darling, the chords of my love;

Light, light up my day Light, light up my day Light, light up my day

the sky opens, the wind runs wild, laughter passes over the earth.

Light, light up my day Light, light up my day Light, light up my day Light, light up my day

The butterflies spread their sails on the sea of light.

Lilies and jasmines surge up on the crest of the waves of light.

Light, light up my day Light, light up my day

The light is shattered into gold on every cloud, my darling,

and it scatters gems in profusion.

Light, light up my day Light, light up my day Light, light up my day

Mirth spreads from leaf to leaf, my darling,

and gladness without measure.
The heaven’s river has drowned its banks
and the flood of joy is abroad.
