Shine, shine lttle star, just shine.
You are beautiful, beautiful before the dawn, last hope in
the evil night, from which others will maybe wake up. I
won't wake up, not that I don't want to. I can't.
The evil night grips me in its slender claws and it won't
let go. Evil night, darkness, is staying all around here.
You were able to protect yourself. You found its weak spot.
You uncovered your beauty in the middle of its disgusting
nets. You obstruct it. Don't let it win.
Shine, little star, shine.
Your blaze is all I want to see, All I will see in this
center of evil and fear. My knees are shaking. Legs. Hands.
All my body is trembling. God knows what would be if you
wouldn't be here, if you wouldn't shine above my head. I
just ask myself how come I've never noticed you before...
Were you born this horrific night? Or.. or I just haven't
seen you because I haven't needed you? Because every
previous night I knew I'd snatch myself from those cold
claws? Do I see you because I haven't this certainty
anymore?
Then I thank you, you bring relief to my fears and
suffering. No, evil cannot win completely, no matter how
strong it is. There's always something good left, you're the
proof. Evil can't win.
Neither can good. But it doesn't matter. You're here,
looking down on me, I look up to you.
Shine, little star, just shine.
You are so cute when you blink from time to time. I'll also
blink, you see? You give me power to smile, even now. How
bright you are, you overshine everything, you move
everything aside, there is nothing but your blaze and my
steps in it. Zimit, gutless, but still more courageous then
they would be if you wouldn't be on watch over me.
You know I'm scared? A lot, really, I would shriek if I had
any voice left, but night chokes me.
And I'm cold. Are all the mornings before dawn so cold? I've
never noticed.
No, never. But I've not noticed much more, a lot of things I
see as late as now. I already told you I've never seen you.
Still I have no doubt you've guarded the world for much
longer then I live, longer then humanity exists. And you'll
guard it even when I die, when I am not. What a fantasy!!!
Just shine, little star.
Looking at you I forget about everything else. Seeing
nothing but you, and that's good. Come, we'll go together,
little star, we'll go where we have to go. We'll go, we'll
forget, we won't see, we won't hear.
Enlight my path and lead me, please.
Lead me through that valley of death and horror, and I'll
look at you, I won't turn back, I'll forget about those
faces in shadows, dead faces of dead people who ask why. I
won't look around, I won't see those dissolutes howling with
zest, dissolutes celebrating extazy of death.
I'll look only up, up to you, not behind, not around and not
forward, where they lead me. No, I will not see. I do not
see. I do not see it, ugly, waiting for me, for us. Your
light encourages me. Thank you, little star.
Thank you that I do not see the demon of evil night which
they prepared for me, for us. The gallows, the scaffold, the
gas chamber. Waiting fo me, looking forward to me.
Thank you.
Let's go, there's just few steps left.
Shine me down to them, little star.
