Little brother, only small
Yet like the stars you shine,
Your pleasant eyes do soon enthral,
The darkest of our minds.
Like Heaven's charm,
You free from harm,
The people you hold dear,
And sprinkle dust,
Of perfect trust,
To banish every tear.
Little brother, sweet as dew,
Your shoulders seem too weak
To bear this weight you carry through,
I beg you brother, speak.
As strong as gold,
You stand to hold
Our troubles heavy stone.
I pray thee Brother,
Tell another,
Don't bear this load alone.
Little brother, heaven sent,
As valued as the sun,
I pray you will be soon content
Once this battle's won.
Now darkness falls,
And sleep does call
So rest your beating head.
It won't be long,
'Til morning's song
Will raise you from your bed.
