As sunlight paints her colors
Across the eastern skies
The westward murmurations
Of starling birds float by
Another watchman scans the heavens
From thousands of miles afar
Their hopes for peace and friendship are never far apart
Say good morning to the day
Say good morning yeah
Say good morning to the day
Say good morning say good morning
Life begins today
A father rises early
To put his hands upon a plow
First he kisses all his children
His love they never doubt
A mother brings her infant
Closer to her chest
Into her daughter’s eyes she gazes
To feel the depths of humanness
