[00:09.910] |
who will love a little sparrow |
[00:17.690] |
who's traveled far and cries for rest? |
[00:26.340] |
"not i," said the oak tree |
[00:30.720] |
"i won't share my branches with no sparrow's nest |
[00:35.980] |
and my blanket of leaves won't warm her cold breast" |
[00:44.860] |
who will love a little sparrow |
[00:52.830] |
and who will speak a kindly word? |
[01:01.540] |
"not i," said the swan |
[01:06.040] |
"the entire idea is utterly absurd |
[01:11.150] |
i'd be laughed at and scorned if the other swans heard." |
[01:25.290] |
And who will take pity in his heart |
[01:33.170] |
and who will feed a starving sparrow? |
[01:41.780] |
"not i," said the golden wheat |
[01:46.140] |
"i would if i could but i cannot i know |
[01:51.520] |
i need all my grain to prosper and grow" |
[02:00.010] |
who will love a little sparrow? |
[02:08.790] |
will no one write her eulogy? |
[02:17.040] |
"i will," said the earth |
[02:21.190] |
"for all i've created returns unto me |
[02:26.710] |
from dust were ye made and dust ye shall be" |
[02:36.090] |
