The Moon Rises

Now the hour has come at last
The soft and fading light
Has crossed the west horizon
And has bidden us goodnight
And what a lovely night it is
To walk a moonlit field
To see the softer shades
That are by starlight now revealed

So why is it that now?
When all is quiet and in rest
When candles glow and all the world
Is at it's very best
The ponies of equestria
Should lock themselves away
To shun the moon and wait instead
For sister's sunny day
(Umbrella luna test)
Am I so wrong to wish that they would seem things like I do?

And am I so wrong to think that they might love me too?
Why shouldn't they adore me?
Is it not within' my right?
I'll not be overshadowed
Mine is not the lesser light
I've waited long enough now
For them all to come around
And thought the sun may plead and threaten
The moon will stand her ground

It comes to this at last
I will no longer yield the sky
If they can't love but one princess alone
See, the moon is rising
She has come to claim the heavens for her own
And all will know the wonders
Of my dark and jeweled sky
When all the world is wrapped
In an eternal lullaby

So say goodnight to this
The final setting of the sun
Tomorrow dawns in darkness
The night time has begun (noted)
