paroles de chanson Travellers' Prayer - John Renbourn

Praise to the moon, bright queen of the skies
Jewel of the black night, the light of our eyes
Brighter than starlight, whiter than snow
Look down on us in the darkness below

If well you should find us then well let us stay
Be it seven times better when you make your way
Be it seven times better when we greet the dawn
So light up our way and keep us from all harm

Give strength to the weary, give alms to the poor
To the tainted and needy five senses restore
Give song to our voices, give sight to our eyes
To see the sun bow as the new moon shall rise

Cast your eyes downwards to our dwelling place
Three times for favour and three times for grace
Over the dark clouds, your face for to see
To banish misfortune and keep Trinity

In the name of our Lady, bright maiden of grace
In the name of the King of the City of Peace
In the name of our Saviour, who hung on the tree
All praise to the moon, for eternity
