Raven

Raven By: R.A.J Rose Oh raven, where are you flying? Over the ice and snow, Oh raven, surely I’m dieing And my mother doesn’t know, Race through the bitter weather Fly through the starless night, To where my people come together To dance by firelight. Find my mother and kiss her For I shall not kiss her again, How sorrowfully I miss her Staunching my final pain. Find my darling lover Whose lips are sweeter than wine, Tell him my life is over And he will never be mine. Oh raven, where are you flying? Over the ice and snow, Oh raven, now I am dieing And my mother doesn’t know.
