| [00:23.30] |
The day is over and still so heavy on the mind |
| [00:32.11] |
In flew glowing, smiling mother, butterfly in yellow |
| [00:42.88] |
To join the frowning cactus crowd |
| [00:47.92] |
Finding flowers even there to flutter round |
| [00:57.39] |
I thought, isn't mother grand? The way she flies and flies |
| [01:03.92] |
Into the sting of the cold and the prick of the barbed wire |
| [01:13.09] |
Isn't mother grand to gladly fly and swiftly fly |
| [01:20.10] |
Into the sting of the cold and the prick of the barbed wire |
| [01:42.71] |
The day is over and still goes passing through the mind: |
| [01:51.55] |
In came glowing, smiling mother, sure and kind |
| [01:59.25] |
To rouse us, to give ourselves out and to cry |
| [02:06.63] |
Birth to warm intentions, worthless otherwise |
| [02:16.62] |
Oh, the lives that brush against us, pass us by and by |
| [02:24.34] |
The friends who may or may not come if we would first invite |
| [02:32.33] |
Oh, to open doors, to always gladly fly and fly |
| [02:47.67][02:39.08] |
Into the sting of the cold and the prick of the barded wire |
