Now the hour [bad word] at last
The soft and fading light
Has crossed the west horizon and
Has bidden us goodnight

And what a lovely night it is
To walk a moonlit field
To see the softer shades
That are by starlight now revealed

So why is it that now when all
Is quiet and at rest
When candles glow and all the world
Is at its very best

The ponies of equestria
Should lock themselves away
To shun the moon and wait instead
For Sister's sunny day?

(Latin chanting)

I so wrong to wish that they
Would see things like I do?
And am I so wrong to think
That they might love me too?

Why shouldn't they adore me?
Is it not within my right?
I'll not be overshadowed
Mine is not the lesser light!

I've waited long enough now
For them all [bad word] around
And though the sun may plead and threaten
The moon will stand her ground!

And all will know the wonder
Of my dark and jeweled sky
When all the world is wrapped in
An eternal lullaby

So say goodnight at this the final
Setting of the sun
Tomorrow dawns in darkness
The night time has begun!
