Текст песни Stillife — Magpie
“Magpie, Magpie, tell me, pray,
Where have you been?”
“Far away!”
“You built a fire,
And you cooked some mash,
You called your friends,
And here, in a flash,
A hungry brood
By the porch they stood.
You drew your spoon,
They held the noon.”
“Magpie, Magpie, tell me, dear,
Where have you been?”
“I've been near!”
“The squirrel had some,
And so did the hare,
The fox and the owl
They each got a share.
But the wolf in the hole
Got nothing at all.
His little grey soul
Got nothing at all!”
“He had fetched no water,
He had chopped no wood,
He had built no fire,
He had cooked no food!”
Where have you been?”
“Far away!”
“You built a fire,
And you cooked some mash,
You called your friends,
And here, in a flash,
A hungry brood
By the porch they stood.
You drew your spoon,
They held the noon.”
“Magpie, Magpie, tell me, dear,
Where have you been?”
“I've been near!”
“The squirrel had some,
And so did the hare,
The fox and the owl
They each got a share.
But the wolf in the hole
Got nothing at all.
His little grey soul
Got nothing at all!”
“He had fetched no water,
He had chopped no wood,
He had built no fire,
He had cooked no food!”

Краткое описание
Текст песни Stillife — Magpie [Lullabies, 2012] рассказывает о вороне, которая бродит по лесу. Она поделилась со своими друзьями кашицей, которую сварила на костре. Все животные, кроме волка, получили свою порцию еды. Волк остался без еды, потому что не помогал братьям по лесу. Он не носил воду, не рубил дрова, не готовил еду, поэтому никто из животных не хотел с ним делиться. Слова песни Stillife — Magpie [Lullabies, 2012] напоминают о том, что друзья помогают друг другу, а ленивые и эгоистичные люди не получают ничего в замен. Текст песни легкий и мелодичный, поэтому он отлично подходит для сна и отдыха..
