When birds begin to sing their song 
You know the night has gone 
When all the shadows have withdrawn 
You know the day has dawned 

And then be pleased, you living one 
To see the morning sun 
Be pleased to touch your loved one's heart 
And know you'll never part

Tune up your strings in harmony 
Strike up your song of joy 
Learn the music, let it sound 
Stand up and sing your song 

Be pleased to see the morning dew 
And life being born anew 
Be pleased to see the newborn's smile 
And know that life's worthwhile 

Tune up your strings in harmony 
Strike up your song of joy 
Learn the music, let it sound 
Stand up and sing your song 
Learn the music, let it sound 
Stand up and sing your song

"Be pleased, then, you the living,
in your delightfully warmed bed,
before Lethe's ice-cold wave will lick your escaping foot."
(Wolfgang von Goethe - Roman Elegies, 1790)

"You, The Living"
