Cailín be careful when wishingBecause love is not a decisionChoosing a heartBegins in you heartAnd any less, something is missingI tell you, Loveen, about stealingI once knew a terrible feelingThat the birds and the beesWhere laughing at meAnd my nectar, it was without reason
Don't prickle like a holly leafSo none can taste your berry till blood red readyTo fall for the steady green
Who taught me how to grieve?Sing like sparrow, don't dream narrowAnd know about the silver seed
Who make a woman out of me?No cross can claim my gladnessTame my madnessI'm born of my mother's seedMother is soil and queenI met her last night in a dreamShe said the stars in the skyThey know the same lineAs the stars that are hanging in the trees
Mother there's a star in meNectar sweet indeedI sing like sparrowI won't dream narrowI'll know about the silver seedHah!
