Lyrics

[Verse 1]
All movement is accomplished in six stages
And the seventh brings return
The seven is the number of the young light
It forms when darkness is increased by one
[Verse 2]
Change, return, success
Going and coming without error
Action brings good fortune
Sunset
[Verse 3]
The time is with the month of winter solstice
When the change is due to come
Thunder in the Earth, the course of Heaven
Things cannot be destroyed once and for all
[Verse 4]
Change, return, success
Going and coming without error
Action brings good fortune
Sunset
Sunrise
[Verse 5]
All movement is accomplished in six stages
And the seventh brings return
The seven is the number of the young light
It forms when darkness is increased by one
[Verse 6]
Change, return, success
Going and coming without error
Action brings good fortune
Sunset
Sunrise, sunrise
Sunrise, sunrise, sunrise
