The dark of night fades away,
As the sun comes for a new day;
What surprises await today?
In the light of Antarctica's day.
The snow and ice glittering white,
The ocean beneath deep blue;
The cold icy glaciers and the barren plains,
The source of Antarctica's crystal hue.
The wind sings over the mountains,
And the oceans dance along;
All the animals,birds and fish,
Come to join the song.
The darkness soon takes over,
The shining crystal plain;
And the wind turns fierce and bitter,
For the night has come again.
