Hush my child
Come to me
Lay your bones down
On a bed of sweet evergreen

Let mother
Heal you
Like she
Only can

Let you forget
The sadness that
Has been

Let me wash
Away your tears
With the water from
An ocean you once held dear

And don’t you worry
Your pretty little
Head for soon
One day we’ll
All be dead

But our spirits
Will live on
As a morning
Birds song

To let those
We love
Know that we’ve
Moved on.
