Lyrics
0:13Who will love a little sparrow
0:17Who's traveled far and cries for rest
0:26"Not I " said the Oak Tree
0:30"I won't share my branches with no sparrow's nest
0:35And my blanket of leaves won't warm her cold breast"
0:44Who will love a little sparrow
0:52And who will speak a kindly word
1:01"Not I " said the Swan
1:05"The entire idea is utterly absurd
1:10I'd be laughed at and scorned if the other swans heard "
1:24Who will take pity in his heart
1:32And who will feed a starving sparrow
1:41"Not I " said the Golden Wheat
1:45"I would if I could but I cannot I know
1:51I need all my grain to prosper and grow"
2:00Who will love a little sparrow
2:08Will no one write her eulogy
2:16"I will " said the Earth
2:21"For all I've created returns unto me
2:26From dust were ye made and dust ye shall be"
Who will love a little sparrow Who's traveled far and cries for rest "Not I " said the Oak Tree "I won't share my branches with no sparrow's nest And my blanket of leaves won't warm her cold breast" Who will love a little sparrow And who will speak a kindly word "Not I " said the Swan "The entire idea is utterly absurd I'd be laughed at and scorned if the other swans heard " Who will take pity in his heart And who will feed a starving sparrow "Not I " said the Golden Wheat "I would if I could but I cannot I know I need all my grain to prosper and grow" Who will love a little sparrow Will no one write her eulogy "I will " said the Earth "For all I've created returns unto me From dust were ye made and dust ye shall be"
