First Line: AT END OF LOVE, AT END OF LIFE
Last Line: THE SUN IS RISING -- LET US GO!
Subject(s): LOVE;

AT end of Love, at end of Life,
At end of Hope, at end of Strife,
At end of all we cling to so --
The sun is setting -- must we go?

At dawn of Love, at dawn of Life,
At dawn of Peace that follows Strife,
At dawn of all we long for so --
The sun is rising -- let us go!
