letra de two little children (the orphans' last plea) - jean ritchie
[verse 1]
two little children, a boy and a girl
sat down by the old church door
the little girl’s cheek was as brown as the curl
that fell on the dress that she wore
[verse 2]
the little boy’s coat was all ragged and torn
a tear shone in each little eye
“why don’t you go home to your mama?” they said
and this was the maiden’s reply
[verse 3]
“we can’t earn our bread, we’re too little,” she said
“jim’s five and i’m only seven
we’ve no one to love us since papa’s away
and darling mama’s in heaven
[verse 4]
“mama’s in hеaven, angels took her away
lеft jim and i all alone
and papa got lost on the sea long ago—
we have no mama nor home”
[verse 5]
the s-xton came early to ring the church bell
and found them beneath the snow white
the angels made room for two orphans to dwell
in heaven with mama that night
