Subject(s): Jews;mysticism - Judaism; Judaism


Once there was a story
The story wasn't feeling happy
The story started out by singing
About a Jewish king

Once there was a king
The king had a queen
The queen had a vineyard
Lullaby the vineyard

The vineyard had a tree
The tree had a branch
The branch had a nest
Lullaby the nest

The nest had a bird
The bird had a wing
The wing had a feather
Lullaby the feather

The king had to die
The queen had to fade away
The tree had a breakdown
The bird vanished from the nest
