When the night turns into day.
The girl with a dress covered with raindrops
wakes up and stretches her arms and
says welcome to a new bright day.
The Lady of the Night gives the night away
to the lady with the sunbowl in her hand.
The owles stretch their drowsy wings
and are now slumbering away
after being awake all night through.
Now it is time for the sun and the light to come forth.
The girl with the braid is ready for a new day.
She is on her way to the mountain
with her mantel of hearts swaddle around her shoulders.
She brings her joy to the mountain and its miracles
with the mantel which is also meant for he who works
with and in the mountain which they all are so fond of.
