The moon is like a pearl
In heaven's dusky dress.
A splendor of iridescence...
It glows with mellowness.

She once belonged to a soldier,
Who was shipped across the sea.

Of all my travels far and wide,
To foreign lands and countryside,
None has given me lasting pride,
But the Sweetgrass Hills of Montana.

Pearl
The moon is like a pearl
In heaven's dusky dress.
A splendor of iridescence...
It glows with mellowness.
The stars are meshed in dewdrops,
They shed a silvery light
Upon a sleeping universe...
The hush of velvet night.
A spray of golden moonbeams,
Clings in soft caress.
The moon is like a pearl,
In heaven's dusky dress.
