Liza Lehmann - I sing to him that rests below

I sing to him that rests below
And, since the grasses round me wave
I take the grasses of the grave
And make them pipes whereon to blow
I do but sing because I must
And pipe but as the linnets sing:
And one is glad; her note is gay
For now her little ones have ranged;
And one is sad; her note is changed
Because her brood is stol'n away
And, since the grasses round me wave
I take the grasses of the grave
And make them pipes whereon to blow
I do but sing because I must
And pipe but as the linnets sing:
And one is glad; her note is gay
For now her little ones have ranged;
And one is sad; her note is changed
Because her brood is stol'n away
