letra de little rosewood casket - mac wiseman
[verse 1]
in a little rosewood casket
resting on a marble stand
is a packet of old letters
written by my true love’s hand
[verse 2]
will you go and get them, sister?
will you read them o’er to me?
i have often tried to read them
but for tears, i could not see
[verse 3]
you have got them now, dear sister
come sit down upon my bed
and press gently to your bosom
my poor, throbbing, aching head
[instrumental break]
[verse 4]
read those precious lines so slowly
do not miss a single one
for the cherished hand that wrotе them
his last work for me is done
[verse 5]
tеll him that i never blamed him
though to me, he proved untrue
tell him that i’ll ne’er forget him
till i bid this world adieu
[verse 6]
please tell him i still love him
not an unkind word was spoke
tell, oh, tell him, sister, tell him
that my heart, in sadness, broke
[instrumental break]
[verse 7]
place his letters and his locket
all together o’er my heart
but the little ring he gave me
from my finger ne’er shall part
[verse 8]
you have finished now, dear sister
will you read them o’er again?
while i listen to you read them
i will lose all sense of pain
[verse 9]
while i listen to you read them
i will gently fall asleep
fall asleep to wake in jesus
oh dear sister, do not weep
[verse 10]
when i’m dead and in my coffin
and my shroud lies ’round me bound
then my narrow bed is waiting
in the quiet churchyard ground
