『Chimney Sweeper』William Blake

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ 『The Chimney Sweeper』William Blake   Composer : sunoAI   Lyrics : William Blake (1757-1827) from "Songs of Innocence and of Experience" ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ [Intro] [Verse] When my mother died I was very young, And my father sold me while yet my tongue Could scarcely cry “ 'weep! 'weep! 'weep! 'weep!” So your chimneys I sweep, and in soot I sleep. [Verse] There's little Tom Dacre, who cried when his head, That curl'd like a lamb's back, was shav'd,so I said ”Hush,Tom! never mind it, for when your head's bare You know that the soot cannot spoil your white hair.” [Verse] And so he was quiet, and that very night As Tom was a-sleeping, he had such a sight! That thousands of sweepers, Dick,Joe,Ned,and Jack, Were all of them lock'd up in coffins of black. [Verse] And by came an Angel who had a bright key, And he open'd the coffins and set them all free; Then down a green plain leaping, laughing,they run, And wash in a river, and shine in the sun. [Verse] Then naked and white, all their bags left behind, They rise upon clouds and sport in the wind; And the Angel told Tom, if he'd be a good boy, He'd have God for his father, and never want joy. [Verse] And so Tom awoke, and we rose in the dark, And got with our bags and our brushes to work. Though the morning was cold, Tom was happy and warm; So if all do their duty they need not fear harm.
