Light and Shadow-27 Cello and his shadow

Cello and his shadow

In sunset stands a lonely Cello
talks to no one but his shadow
His words are buzzing bees
His songs are sighing seas
In a tune like wavering willow
In a color like mellowing meadow
Till the sun flees
Cello panics and pleas
Shadow, Shadow, stay with me
for I will sing you nightly glee
My strings will never pluck sorrow
for I need you every tomorrow

In sunrise lies a cheerful Shadow
casted by a lonely Cello
To the Cello Shadow complains
Why is your face painted by grains and pains
Cheer up, cheer up, my fellow
I want to hear your blissful allegro
Please sing my favorite fairy tale
Love at first sight never turns pale
Never a song of a broken heart
Never a couple meet and part
So you will forget last night’s sorrow
and I will be with you every tomorrow
