Brown Hansel asked his baby to do it

1. Little Hansel asked his baby, ; Send his mother to the other world, ; His mother lay down in her garden, ; Little Hansel plunged a knife into her heart. ; ; 2. Little Hansel's pants became bloody, ; Then his dear baby washed them ; – Wash them, my baby, my shirt, my pants white, ; Tomorrow I'm going to the Commissioner of Silence. ; ; 3. – Commissioner of Silence, may God give you a good day. ; – May God give you, Little Hansel, what's wrong with you? ; – Commissioner of Silence, my heart is heavy with sorrow, ; I killed my mother for such a little girl. ; ; 4. – It was a shame for you, Little Hansel, to do that, ; To kill your mother for such a little girl. ; – Commissioner of Silence was my enemy long ago, ; That little girl will never be my wife. ; ; 5. They carve the gallows under it, ; On which they hang Hansel and Gretel, ; The wind blows his black curly hair, ; Someone else hugs Hansel and Gretel's dove.
