john alden carpenter - the player queen lyrics

Loading...

my mother dandled me and sang
“how young it is, how young!”
and made a golden cradle
that on a willow swung

“he went away,” my mother sang
“when i was brought to bed,”
and all the while her needle pulled
the gold and silver thread

she pulled the thread and bit the thread
and made a golden gown
and wept because she had dreamt that i
was born to wear a crown

“when she was got,” my mother sang
“i heard a sea+mew cry
and saw a flake of the yellow foam
that dropped upon my thigh.”

how therefore could she help but braid
the gold into my hair
and dream that i should carry
the golden top of care?
