Now The Day Is Over

Now the day is over

Night is drawing nigh

Shadows of the evening

Steal across the sky

Now the darkness gathers

Stars begin to peep

Birds and beasts and flowers

Soon will be asleep

Now the day is over

The sun has said goodnight

The crescent moon has risen

To share it's gentle light

Now the wind is whispering

In stillness soft and sweet

All of nature's creatures

Now are sound asleep

The birds and beasts and flowers

All have gone to sleep
