Текст песни: Saint Stephen's End + перевод

Did you hear about Saint Stephen’s end

How they stoned him by the river bend?

And the morning sun

When the world was young

Did you hear about the elephant?

Ran wild from the circus tent

Killed a crowd of ten

Before they shot him dead

Oh Mary, don’t you cry

Please lay your weary hand in mine

Did you hear about Edith Cavell

How on the firing line she fell?

In a Belgian night

In a dress of white

Oh Mary, don’t you cry

Please lay your weary hand in mine

And swing low and softly down

And lend me your ear

Did you hear about Saint Peter’s crown

How they crucified him upside down?

And the desert air

When the world was fair

Oh Mary, don’t you cry

Please lay your weary hand in mine

And swing low and softly down

And lend me your ear, Mary dear
