In the gentle embrace of a cool night breeze, under a sky full of bright, glistening stars, where fireflies danced like tiny mirrors of the heavens, a girl and a boy climbed a hill, their hearts light and free. Innocent and full of wonder, they knelt together, their voices soft as they whispered a prayer, carried by the night wind to the infinite sky.

“Starlight, star bright,

Tonight, I send my prayers to the heavens' light.

Grant me this wish, my heart's desire:

To love and protect with endless fire.

If tomorrow’s dawn I fail to see,

May the angel of death come peacefully.

Let my heart depart without regret,

A soul fulfilled, my joys all met.

Starlight, star bright,

I make this wish with all my might:

To love and protect forevermore,

A vow unbroken, a promise pure.”
