Stronger than the night

 

1

Upon the steep bank of a wide-flowing river,

I watch how the time flows away to the deep,

This world is a mad, cruel and pitiless giver,

That leaves us with storms and a sorrow to keep.

Chorus

The tempest is gone, and the rain washes sorrow and weeping away,

I know that the light is much stronger than shadows and night,

So never step off from the straight and the true-hearted way,

Keep faith and a dream in your soul as your guiding light!

Chorus

2

The sky is in gloom as the tempest grows higher,

It seems that the sun will break through the clouds nevermore,

Then storms fade away in the rain and the mire,

And bright golden beams touch the darkening shore.

Chorus

3

The darkness is rent by the sun in its splendor,

The shadows depart and anxieties flee,

The night is not endless, the morning is tender,

And hope wakes anew for the world and for me.

Chorus

4

Our trials and pain are the guides to our reason,

Let’s conquer our doubts and demolish despair,

Let’s cherish the truth through the change of each season,

Be grateful for every new day that we share

Chorus
