My little light

The fickle flame that licks the wick,
If left untamed could char it quick.

Flint up that spark, light up the dark,
Let embers fly and fill the sky!

Now hold on tight, put all your might,
Burn full bright, my little light.

Fire, shine bright; blaze through the night,
Fight the fright; fear not, little light!

For every fire burns to its pith
An end that’s dire will soon be its.

So hold on tight, put all your might,
Just burn full bright, my little light.
