Lullaby for Cain

From the silence, from the night

Comes a distant lullaby

Cry--remember that first cry

Your brother standing by

And lot of loved-- beloved sons of mine

Sing a lullaby; mother is close by

Innocent eyes-- such innocent eyes!--

Envy stole your brother's life

Came home murdered piece of mind

Left you nightmares on the pillow

Sleep now...

Soul-- surrendering your soul

The heart of you not whole

For love, but love walked on

Cast into the dark

Branded with the mark--

Of shame; of Cain

From a garden of God's light

To a wilderness of night

Sleep now; sleep now...
