Little San boy.

Wish you a serene weekend:)

A hymn of the San Bushmen

Young Moon!
Hail, Young Moon!
Hail, hail,
Young Moon!
Young Moon! speak to me!
Hail, hail,
Young Moon! Tell me of something.
Hail, hail!
When the sun rises,
Thou must speak to me,
That I may eat something.
Thou must speak to me about a little thing,
That I may eat.
Hail, hail,
Young Moon!

from Specimens of Bushman folklore (1911),
collected by W.H.I. Bleek and L.C. Lloyd

Hope he will have a serene life.
I would very much like to be sure his world will be a couple of milimeters better than the one his parents and aunts experienced.
