Her Lost Child
He took her child...
Where would the child be?
Spirits of the island wept for thee.
This is no mortal business, I declare.
The child is lost, stolen by human care;
the devil’s lot.
Mourn not!
The child still sings out, Mother find me!
Shake off thy slumber and beware…
lest you miss the spirits who will take you there.
Perhaps, a cavern beneath the sea…
your child will wait for thee…
So, free the spell that hangs like doom
upon the island lost to you…
an open conspiracy took your life’s breath away.
Let open sails take you where you’ll find yourself
and child too.
Mercy may have faults but nature is often kind;
your suffering will end in time.
