| It was the third morning since they had left their home
|
| They started walking into the forest
|
| They saw a lovely bird and they did follow it — just for one song
|
| It landed on a roof, oh of a little house
|
| The walls were made of bread and sugar windows
|
| A candy paradise, a nagging hunger! |
| They broke off a piece
|
| «Nibble, nibble, little rat — it’s my house you’re nibbling at!»
|
| We are the wind or the stormy weather, a soft and a passing breeze
|
| That plays in the trees forever
|
| We are no children, who have come to the sweetest heaven
|
| We are just a passing breeze that plays in the trees forever
|
| And they went on eating sweets — Well it was dangerous
|
| And it made them want more — A craving like a curse!
|
| They broke a piece of bread and grabbed a window- pane
|
| It creaked and cracked
|
| Suddenly that voice again from the inside of the house
|
| Eerily, it frightened them and there was no way out
|
| It sounded like a knife and left them terrified — Once more they lied:
|
| We are the wind or the stormy weather, a soft and a passing breeze
|
| That plays in the trees forever
|
| We are no children, who have come to the sweetest heaven
|
| We are just a passing breeze that plays in the trees forever |
