Seven Stones |
Tinker, alone within a storm |
And losing hope he clears the leaves beneath a tree |
Seven stones lay on the ground |
Within the seventh house a friend was found |
And the changes of no consequence |
Will pick up the reins from nowhere |
Sailors, in peril on the sea |
Amongst the waves a rock looms nearer, and not yet seen |
They see a gull flying by |
The Captain turns the boat and he asks not why |
And the changes of no consequence |
Will pick up the reins from nowhere, nowhere |
Despair that tires the world brings the old man laughter |
The laughter of the world only grieves him |
Believe him |
The old man’s guide is chance |
I heard the old man tell his tale: |
Farmer, who knows not when to sow |
Consults the old man clutching money in his hand |
And with a shrug |
The old man smiled |
Took the money, left the farmer wild |
And the changes of no consequence will pick up the reins from nowhere |
Nowhere |
Despair that tires the world brings the old man laughter |
The laughter of the world only grieves him |
Believe him |
The old man’s guide is chance |
