Butter Lamb
And if the smallest waters bind and make the sea
Then I do trust thee
In the wide thaw, I’ve seen the stars of night
Reflect upon the tide
As if to lay across and make unfar all of the body of sea
And that is how I do love thee
I know, I know it's all [?]

Oh, the butter lamb on Easter and sugar cut from the cane
Where the rabbit and the wolf came to lay
On the sixteenth day
Full, full moon I told you how I am here
And that is boundlessly
And that's what I do promise thee
Oh I know, I know I am here, I am

But still people need small things
The feeling of water, of labor and of sleep
And the freedom to leave
But when I came back, you were no longer to receive me
