Forget My Loss |
Let the sun gather round my shoulders |
And I will forget my loss |
For I had a child |
Whose skin was soft as summer |
As I laid her down for sleep |
But she says, |
«Father don’t leave me |
My dreams have turned to black» |
Listen here, my only daughter, closely |
And you can sleep in peace |
For I have strong hands |
And a cautious eye for danger |
So you can sleep in peace |
But she says, |
«Father don’t leave me |
My skin has turned to white» |
Listen here, my only daughter, closely, |
And you can sleep in peace |
For my house is warm |
From the winds that blow so coldly |
So you can sleep in peace |
But she says, |
«Father stay closely |
My heart, it’s cold like stone» |
My daughter sleeps |
But she will not be dreaming |
Her breathing grows so weak |
My heart tears the skin |
A bird has lost its feathers |
My hands, they grow so weak |
The moon rises over my farmlands |
but I can’t look fondly on |
Let the earth gather round my daughter |
And I will forget my loss |
For I had a child |
Whose skin was soft as summer |
As I laid her down for sleep |
