The Wolf

Final night draws near On the old house by the hill Night draws near Where the children all played at will When the sun at last comes down Hushing merry din Mother won't you look around Are the children in Been so many years Since we played with friends in the streets So many years No longer echoes of childish feet Until we learn to love each other When will it all begin Mother won't you look around Are the children in I'm so afraid The wolf knows where I am I'm so afraid The wolf knows where I am Goodbye to the world Seems just like the other day Bye cruel world All tired of our foolish play When we get to the other land Where mother long has been Will we hear her say Are the children in I'm so afraid The wolf knows where I am I'm so afraid The wolf knows where I am
