Essays in the Study of Folk-Songs (1886)

Will no one tell me what she sings?
Perhaps the plaintive numbers flow
For old, unhappy, far-off things,
And battles long ago:
Or is it some more humble lay,
Familiar matter of to-day?
Some natural sorrow, loss, or pain,
That has been, and may be again!
W. Wordsworth.
Wo man singt da lass dich ruhig nieder,
Böse Menschen haben keine Lieder.
