Early morning
A poor woman
Clutching the body of her child who died of hunger
Wails as she walks through the slum
Early morning, a poor woman
Clutching the body of her child who died of hunger
Wails as she walks through the slum
Look, there’s a witch!
Villagers who’ve realized
The rich bought all the good bread
Pound the castle gates with sticks and rakes
Look, there’s a riot!
After gathering and devouring
All the beans in the field
The hungry people break into the granaries of the rich
Look, therе’s a wolf!
The meek who work and worry, toil and cry
The ones who cannot laugh as thеy like
They’ve begun running
Look, there’s a heretic!
The city’s gates are locked tight, outside it are the people
The city’s gates are locked tight, outside it are the people
All of my friends are poor
Think about this poverty for once
Soon, it’ll have to do with you too
This land must be shaken awake
All of my friends are poor
Think about this poverty for once
Soon, it’ll have to do with you too
This land must be shaken awake
We are not worthless
We are just the ones who bake your bread
Make your wine and drink the dregs
We cannot watch our children starve
There is A Witch
There is A Riot
There is A Heretic
There is A Wolf
