THE CLOUD-FLOWER LULLABY
In the north the cloud flower blossoms,
And now the lightning flashes,
And now the thunder clashes
And now the rain comes down!
A-a-aha, a-a-aha, my little one.
In the west the cloud flower blossoms,
And now the lightning flashes,
And now the thunder clashes,
And now the rain comes down!
A-a-aha, a-a-aha, my little one.
p. 81
In the south the cloud flower blossoms,
And now the lightning flashes,
And now the thunder clashes,
And now the rain comes down!
A-a-aha, a-a-aha, my little one.
In the east the cloud flower blossoms,
And now the lightning flashes,
And now the thunder clashes,
And now the rain comes down!
A-a-aha, a-a-aha, my little one.
