[00:29]Go son, go down to the water
[00:35]And see the women weeping there
[00:43]Then go up into the mountains
[00:50]The men, they are weeping too
[00:57]Father, why are all the women weeping?
[01:04]They are weeping for their men
[01:11]Then why are all the men there weeping?
[01:18]They are weeping back at them
[01:30]This is a weeping song
[01:35]A song in which to weep
[01:39]While all the men and women sleep
[01:45]This is a weeping song
[01:49]But I won't be weeping long
[01:58]Father, why are all the children weeping?
[02:05]They are merely crying son
[02:12]O, are they merely crying, father?
[02:20]Yes, true weeping is yet to come
[02:31]This is a weeping song
[02:36]A song in which to weep
[02:40]While all the little children sleep
[02:46]This is a weeping song
[02:50]But I won't be weeping long
[02:59]O father tell me, are you weeping?
[03:06]Your face seems wet to touch
[03:13]O then I'm so sorry, father
[03:20]I never thought I hurt you so much
[03:32]This is a weeping song
[03:36]A song in which to weep
[03:41]While we rock ourselves to sleep
[03:46]This is a weeping song
[03:50]But I won't be weeping long
[03:55]No I won't be weeping long
[04:00]No I won't be weeping long
[04:06]No I won't be weeping long
