I rise in the east, and it is day.I send my light into your room and tell you it is time to get up.When I shine, you cannot lie in your bed or sleep.You must work or study.
I send my light everywhere.I shine over the trees, the houses, the hills and the water, and I make everything beautiful.I am high in the sky, higher than the highest mountains, higher than the clouds.Sometimes I hide my face behind a dark cloud, so you cannot see me.But when there are no clouds in the blue sky, you still cannot look at me at noon, because I am too bright.
When I am going to rise in the morning and begin the day, the birds fly into the sky to meet me, and cocks crow to tell everybody that I am coming.
It seems that I am a great traveler in the sky.I never stop, and I'm never tired.But, in fact, it is the earth that is traveling around me all the time.
