A Handful of Bread

A HANDFUL OF BREAD FOR THE SINGER’S SONG
By Kati Evans

[Long Instrumental Intro — Pan Flute Alone, Then Hand Drums]

[Verse 1 — Female Solo, Fully Sung]
“A handful of bread for a song” he cried,
“Oh let me sing for you.
Oh let me sing the sweetest song
Of the glorious days gone by
When heroes fought for Home Stone
In the victorious battles passed by.”

[Chorus — Female and Male Singing Together]
A handful of bread for the singer’s song,
Let the tales of our people live on.
Of hearts and heroes, hearth and stone,
Sing their names till we carry them home.

[Verse 2 — Female Solo, Fully Sung]
“A handful of bread for a song” he cried,
“Oh let me stand and give verse.
Of loves that have withstood the test of time
And those joyous days of old
With ceremonies, processions, and great tournaments
That all do need to be told.”

[Verse 3 — Female Solo, Fully Sung]
“A handful of bread for a song” he cried,
“Oh let me sing you a song.
Of the great cities across this grand world
And the history of our land.
So with another do raise your voice
And let our song ring out through the land.”

[Instrumental Interlude — Pan Flute and Hand Drums]

[Verse 4 — Female Solo, Fully Sung]
“A handful of bread for a song” he cried,
“Oh let me tell of my heart.
With the deepest of emotions I pour out for you
Of things that now must be heard,
So to in later years you may recall what this day has been said
And these true songs continue on to the little ones be spread.”

[Final Chorus — Female and Male Singing Together]
A handful of bread for the singer’s song,
Let the tales of our people live on.
Of hearts and heroes, hearth and stone,
Sing their names till we carry them home.

[Final Line — Female Solo, Sung Softly]
“Oh please, oh please, just a handful of bread.”

[Long Instrumental Outro — Repeat the Full Introduction, Same Melody and Length: Pan Flute Alone, Then Hand Drums]
