[00:29.00]Go son, go down to the water
[00:35.00]And see the women weeping there
[00:43.00]Then go up into the mountains
[00:50.00]The men, they are weeping too
[00:57.00]Father, why are all the women weeping?
[01:04.00]They are weeping for their men
[01:11.00]Then why are all the men there weeping?
[01:18.00]They are weeping back at them
[01:30.00][01:45.00][02:31.00][02:46.00][03:32.00][03:46.00]This is a weeping song
[01:35.00][02:36.00][03:36.00]A song in which to weep
[01:39.00]While all the men and women sleep
[01:49.00][02:50.00][03:50.00]But I won't be weeping long
[01:58.00]Father, why are all the children weeping?
[02:05.00]They are merely crying son
[02:12.00]O, are they merely crying, father?
[02:20.00]Yes, true weeping is yet to come
[02:40.00]While all the little children sleep
[02:59.00]O father tell me, are you weeping?
[03:06.00]Your face seems wet to touch
[03:13.00]O then I'm so sorry, father
[03:20.00]I never thought I hurt you so much
[03:41.00]While we rock ourselves to sleep
[03:55.00][04:00.00][04:06.00]No I won't be weeping long

Go son, go down to the water
And see the women weeping there
Then go up into the mountains
The men, they are weeping too
Father, why are all the women weeping?
They are weeping for their men
Then why are all the men there weeping?
They are weeping back at them
This is a weeping song
A song in which to weep
While all the men and women sleep
But I won't be weeping long
Father, why are all the children weeping?
They are merely crying son
O, are they merely crying, father?
Yes, true weeping is yet to come
While all the little children sleep
O father tell me, are you weeping?
Your face seems wet to touch
O then I'm so sorry, father
I never thought I hurt you so much
While we rock ourselves to sleep
No I won't be weeping long
