They call you Mary, dear Mary They bring you food and feed your hunger They put their lives in danger to protect you Yet you fail the heart and break the dream
Will Mary lie to her children Should Mary abandon her blood Where shall the boy go and look for a shelter Until he forgets and forgives
Why the shadow grows so long Why the clouds hanging over and not gone Why the tears stay all the night And why the earth echoes emptiness
Oh Mary dear Mary There is a secret between us They are not blind but they can’t see They are branded but they can’t feel
Oh Mary dear Mary There is a secret between us We are not blind but they can’t see We are branded but they can’t feel
Oh Mary dear Mary The mountains and thunders made you The blessings and sufferings go through you As embodied on you, the tombs and cradles
They call you Mary, dear Mary They bring you food and feed your hunger They put their lives in danger to protect you Yet you fail the heart and break the dream
