Текст Richard Thompson – The May Day Psalter
Текст:
Give me simple for my pleasure
Charity for my success
Give me wisdom and misfortune
Heart’s ease for my distress
When men boast or make me tremble
When men mock or make me weak
Give me veils to cover over
Secrets that my heart may keep
Sharpen up my axe to shatter
King, tyrant, fool, or fake
Let me love to overflowing
Flooding till my banks do break
Wash me like a rock in a river
Cover up my tracks with rain
Move me like a wave on the ocean
Risen once never rise again
