The first happiness of the day
It's a ribbon of sunlight
That wraps around your hand
And caresses my shoulder
It's the breath of the sea
And the waiting beach
It's the bird that sang
On the branch of the fig tree

The first sorrow of the day
It's the door that closes
The car that leaves
The silence that settles
But you quickly return
And my life resumes its course
The last happiness of the day
It's the lamp that goes out
