The Sky Above the Roof
The sky above the roof
Is calm and sweet
A tree above the roof
Bends in the heat
A bell from out the blue
Drowsily rings
A bird from out the blue
Plaintively sings
Ah God! A life is here,
Simple and fair
Murmurs of strife are here
Lost in the air
Why dost thou weep
O heart
Poured out in tears?
What hast thou done
O heart,
With thy spent years?
Is calm and sweet
A tree above the roof
Bends in the heat
A bell from out the blue
Drowsily rings
A bird from out the blue
Plaintively sings
Ah God! A life is here,
Simple and fair
Murmurs of strife are here
Lost in the air
Why dost thou weep
O heart
Poured out in tears?
What hast thou done
O heart,
With thy spent years?
