[00:11.81]She came to me one morning
[00:14.70]One lonely Sunday morning
[00:17.77]Her long hair flowing
[00:20.19]In the midwinter wind
[00:23.73]I know not how she found me
[00:26.59]For in darkness I was walking
[00:29.52]And destruction lay around me
[00:32.07]From a fight I could not win
[00:35.74]Ah ah ah...
[00:56.21]She asked me name my foe then
[00:59.15]I said the need within some men
[01:02.14]To fight and kill their brothers
[01:04.67]Without thought of love or god
[01:08.11]And I begged her give me horses
[01:11.02]To trample down my enemies
[01:14.06]So eager was my passion
[01:16.96]To devour this waste of life
[01:20.24]Ah ah ah...
[01:32.15]But she wouldn't think of battle that reduces men to animals
[01:37.73]So easy to begin
[01:40.09]And yet impossible to end
[01:43.63]For she's the mother of our men
[01:46.61]Who counselled me so wisely then
[01:49.57]I feared to walk alone again
[01:52.28]And asked if she would stay
[01:55.84]Ah ah ah...
[02:07.49]Oh lady lend your hand outright
[02:10.43]And let me rest here at your side
[02:13.26]Have faith and trust in peace she said
[02:16.20]And filled my heart with life
[02:19.19]There is no strength numbers
[02:22.11]Have no such misconception
[02:25.07]But when you need me
[02:26.90]Be assured I won't be far away
[02:31.32]Ah ah ah...
[02:42.95]Thus having spoke she turned away
[02:45.89]And though I found no words to say
[02:48.71]I stood and watched until I saw
[02:51.76]Her black coat disappear
[02:54.72]My labour is no easier
[02:57.69]But now I know I'm not alone
[03:00.65]I find new heart each time
[03:02.93]I think upon that windy day
[03:06.96]And if one day she comes to you
[03:09.58]Drink deeply from her words so wise
[03:12.60]Take courage from her as your prize
[03:15.36]And say hello from me
[03:18.74]Ah ah ah...
[03:42.51]Ah ah ah...
