Hollow Reed Lyrics
Make me as a hollow reed, that I may play and plant thy seed
Rascal's closet may be lit, and have a needy rhyme in it
Make me as a flute of stone that when I play thy wind is blown
Rascal's hideaway might chill, and die away from sill to sill
Hollow reed, hollow reed, hollow reed, hollow reed
Make me as a hollow reed that I may sing your grace, my steed
Rascal's secret will be seen in its decay and sickening green
Make me as a proof in turn, I will prove to them that yearn
Rascal's lie is manifest and never could survive your test
Hollow reed, hollow reed, hollow reed, hollow reed
Make me as a hollow reed so I may give them what they need
Rascal's reign will come to end and monarch's eyes will shine again
Make me strong for I am weak, give me words and I will speak

Rascal's cheeks will burn in shame when all of us know your name
Hollow reed, hollow reed, hollow reed, hollow reed
Hollow reed, hollow reed, hollow reed, hollow reed
