Stay, the old willow said
I shall hold you safe
In my weeping arms
Stay, the great mountain said
I shall stand between
You and the woes to come
The sleep then shall shelter your soul
In the deepest of dreams
Away from the world’s sorrows
And time after time shall go by
Life after life
As the morning star crowns the night
Rains and snows, thunders and storms
Mournful songs and some other ones
Griefs and blisses, pains and joys
All be gone, all be gone, all be gone
