I hear that call
From far away
Gentle, caressing...
Those tender words
That softly unfurl
The fluffy wings of sleep
Ah, it is familiar
This magic call
As it draws near
Chasing away
All traces of weakness
Yet, each time it's new
Like pearls and diamonds
Enchanting my ears
Luring my soul
Into its warm embrace
And oh,
Like the birth of a new born
This bliss of call
Slowly ushers in
The joyous break of dawn
