The Cloak, The Boat And The Shoes Songtext
'What do you make so fair and bright?''I make the cloak of Sorrow:O lovely to see in all men's sightShall be the cloak of Sorrow,In all men's sight.''What do you build with sails for flight?''I build a boat for Sorrow:O Swift on the seas all day and nightSaileth the rover Sorrow,All day and night.''What do you weave with wool so white?''I weave the shoes of Sorrow:Soundless sall be the footfall lightIn all men's ears of Sorrow,Sudden and light.'
