Rabenekek (If I enter a new hejre)
Song
If I go to a new court, ; The court of the king. ; There I see many gentlemen sitting, ; They will judge me. ; ; They would sentence me to three years, ; I would be released, but I cannot. ; I write home to my mother, ; Send clothes for her son. ; ; – My mother, my mother, my sweet mother, ; Come and see my room. ; My bed is pure iron, ; Here I am dying, my sweet mother. ; ; If I am found dying here, ; Who will weep for me? ; You weep for me, my sweet mother, ; The one who takes care of me.
