Goosey, Goosey, Gander ਗੂਸੀ ਗੂਸੀ ਗੈਂਡਰ, ਮੈਂ ਕਿੱਥੇ ਜਾਵਾਂ ਭਟਕਦਾ? Goosey, goosey, gander, whither shall I wander? Goosey, goosey, gander — ਕਿੱਥੇ ਜਾਵਾਂ wander? Upstairs, downstairs, ਨਾ ਮਿਲਿਆ answer Lady’s room 'ਚ ਹੋਇਆ sudden glare In that silence, even fear had flair ਉਥੇ ਸੈਕ ਤੇ ਜਿੰਜਰ—slow burn, beware Goosey gander, ਆਇਆ ਸੀ ਰੌਲਾ ਪਰ ਜਿੱਥੇ ਦਿਲ ਨਾ ਹੋਵੇ, ਓਥੇ ਕਦੇ ਨਾ ਹੋਲਾ Restless mind, stairwell fate We arr...

I feel it comin’ like a Sunday mornin’ train Up over my head I hear freedom in the air Yes I do, yes I do Up over my head There’s a spirit movin’ there Oh it’s movin’ Up over my head I feel change, I feel care And I really do believe Oh I really do believe Up over my head I see justice risin’ slow Like the dawn, like the dawn Up over my head Truth is knockin’ on the door Say come on, come on Up ov...

I do not like your big fat rump I do not like your greedy schemes I do not like your money screams I do not like your broken dreams I do not like you on a throne I do not like your tweeting phone I do not like you here or there I do not like you anywhere I do not like how you treated Pence I do not like your fetid stench I do not like your fake gold hair I do not like your nasty glare I do not lik...

If you can keep your head when all about you     Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,     But make allowance for their doubting too; If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,     Or being lied about, don't deal in lies, Or being hated, don't give way to hating,     And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise: If you can dream—and not make...

I lift every voice like a lantern in the dawn I hold every syllable like a seed of freedom rising Lift every voice and sing as the heavens ring Let the harmonies of liberty breathe through our bones Let rejoicing rise high as listening skies Let it roll like a sea of hope we built stone by stone Sing a song full of the faith the dark past taught Sing a song full of the hope this new day brought Fa...

I lie awake too heavy to breathe Each thought circles like a silent thief I reach for light behind my eyes But all I feel is fading skies You used to hold me when I cried But now I echo asking why How long Lord will you forget me forever How long will you hide your face from me How long must I wrestle with my thoughts And day after day have sorrow in my heart My faith is flickering like a flame I...

The Fisherman and His Wife There was once a fisherman who lived with his wife in a pigsty, close by the seaside. The fisherman used to go out all day long a-fishing; and one day, as he sat on the shore with his rod, looking at the sparkling waves and watching his line, all on a sudden his float was dragged away deep into the water: and in drawing it up he pulled out a great fish. But the fish said...

Little Boy Blue, come, blow your horn! The sheep's in the meadow, the cow's in the corn. Where's the little boy that looks after the sheep? Under the haystack, fast asleep! The sheep have wandered, the cow’s having fun, Munching on corn in the bright midday sun. The barnyard’s a mess, the field’s in dismay, While Little Boy Blue sleeps the day away. They nudge him, they poke him, they moo in his e...

All things bright and beautiful All creatures great and small All things wise and wonderful The Lord God made them all Each little flower that opens Each little bird that sings He made their glowing colors He made their tiny wings The purple-headed mountain The river running by The sunset and the morning That brightens up the sky The cold wind in the winter The pleasant summer sun The ripe fruits...

Old Sultan was faithful and true But his teeth were gone, his years were through The shepherd thought, “Tomorrow he’ll go” But his wife said, “No, let him stay, you know” Sultan may be old, his teeth all gone But he’s served us well, he’s brave and strong One more chance is all he needs To prove his worth with loyal deeds Poor Sultan lay by, feeling sad and low He heard the words, he’d have to go...

Good King Wenceslas (Nik Bear Brown) Good King Wenceslas looked out on the Feast of Stephen, When the snow lay round about, deep and crisp and even. Brightly shone the moon that night, though the frost was cruel, When a poor man came in sight, gath’ring winter fuel. “Hither, page, and stand by me, if you know it, telling, Yonder peasant, who is he? Where and what his dwelling?” “Sire, he lives a g...

We Three Kings Lyrics adapted by Nik Bear Brown We three kings of Orient are; Bearing gifts we traverse afar, Field and fountain, moor and mountain, Following yonder star. O star of wonder, star of light, Star with royal beauty bright, Westward leading, still proceeding, Guide us to thy perfect light. Born a King on Bethlehem's plain, Gold I bring to crown him again, King forever, ceasing never, O...

They told me Hush As if silence were a tidy room with no windows But my breath Fluttered open Like a stubborn bird With a starlit throat Whoever taught wings to listen Their hush fell Heavy as old kingdoms And still My voice leapt out A barefoot thing Laughing in sound I sang instead Because the world keeps forgetting How loud a single heartbeat can bloom When no one is looking And my song Not qui...
