lyrics

Walking up the hill above
The roots are made of stone
Climbing rocks, bruising off
Guts are made of bones

Treasure hunting in the sun,
running on bare feet
Children’s laughter, having fun
Wildly planting seeds

Oh, brother, hold my hand
Oh, sister, help me understand

Oh, mother see what I have found,
so soft and full of fear
Now I'm walking round and round
The river fills with tears

Oh, father tell me where to find
this little birdie’s nest
Oh, father tell me, be so kind
Help him to get rest

Oh brother, hold my hand
Oh, sister, help me understand
Oh, mother, hold my hand
Oh, father, hold my hand

Today Ylja performs as a duet and with various session players depending on the occasion.
