"brother sun, sister moon" is a movie about Saint Francis of Assisi.
this movie (1972) was directed by Franco Zeffirelli, who also directed Academy-Award-winning movie "Romeo and Juliet" in 1968.

the title song reflects the simplicity of St. Francis' life and alludes to his epiphany.

Brother Sun and Sister Moon,
I seldom see you, seldom hear your tune
Preoccupied with selfish misery.

Brother Wind and Sister Air,
Open my eyes to visions pure and fair.
That I may see the glory around me.

I am God's creature, of Him I am a part
I feel your love awaking in my heart

Brother Sun and Sister Moon
I now do see you, I can hear your tune
So much in love with all that I survey.

Note: Spanish colonists first adopted the name "San Francisco" for the beautiful city in California.
