Lyrics
These are the hands that that wield a sword
With trained and practiced skill
These are the hands, and this the mind
Both honed and backed by will
Death is my partner, blood my trade,
And war my passion wild–
But these are the hands that also ache
To hold a tiny child
Suffer, they suffer the children,
When I see them, gods, my heart breaks!
It is ever and always the children
Who pay for their parents’ mistakes
Somehow they know that I’m a friend–
I see it in their eyes,
Somehow they sense a kindly heart–
So young, so very wise
Mine are the hands that maim and kill–
But children never care
They only know my hands are strong
And comfort is found there.
Suffer, they suffer the children,
When I see them, gods, my heart breaks!
It is ever and always the children
Who pay for their parents’ mistakes
(Music interlude)
Little enough that i can do,
To shield the young from pain,
Not while their parents fight and die,
For land or, goods, or gain,
All i can do is give them love,
All i can do is strive,
To teach them enough of my poor skill,
To help them stay alive,
Suffer, they suffer the children,
When I see them, gods, my heart breaks!
It is ever and always the children
Who pay for their parents’ mistakes
Who pay for their parents mistakes
