The Weeping Song |
Go son, go down to the water |
And see the women weeping there |
Then go up into the mountains |
The men, they are weeping too |
Father, why are all the women weeping? |
They are weeping for their men |
Then why are all the men there weeping? |
They are weeping back at them |
This is a weeping song |
A song in which to weep |
While all the men and women sleep |
This is a weeping song |
But I won’t be weeping long |
Father, why are all the children weeping? |
They are merely crying son |
O, are they merely crying, father? |
Yes, true weeping is yet to come |
This is a weeping song |
A song in which to weep |
While all the men and women sleep |
This is a weeping song |
But I won’t be weeping long |
O father tell me, are you weeping? |
Your face seems wet to touch |
O then I’m so sorry, father |
I never thought I hurt you so much |
This is a weeping song |
A song in which to weep |
While we rock ourselves to sleep |
This is a weeping song |
But I won’t be weeping long |
But I won’t be weeping long |
But I won’t be weeping long |
But I won’t be weeping long |
