THE RAVEN AND THE CROW AND THE ROOSTER

THE RAVEN AND THE CROW AND THE ROOSTER

The moon is full as
the church clockย 
stirkes midnightย 
and the churchย 
bells ring asย 
midnight massย 
begins the poor
souls sit in church
listening to the priest
say his sermon as
the children choir
sings AVE MARIE
outside the ravenย 
flys from grave to grave
and the crow CROWS
to the midnight moon
the priest say the red wine
you drink is the blood
of JESUSย  the moon
shines on the river
as the crow flys from
grave to grave and
the raven CROWSย 
at the midnight moon
and the priest say lets
all prayer for all the poor
souls in the world
as midnight mass ends
the poor souls walk from
grave to grave and theย 
raven and the crow fly away
in a far off distancesย 
a rooster CROWS to midnight
