Three Sisters Lyrics – Daniel Kahn
Singer: Daniel Kahn
Title: Three Sisters
Oh, draw won’t you please now, the indigo curtain
And doctors, administer me no more drugs
My creditors stand at my bed, I am certain
The silent ones – Faith, Esperanza and Love
My creditors stand at my bed, I am certain
The silent ones – Вера, Надежда, Любовь
“My time, it is short now
And soon I’ll be going
My pockets are empty
My debts are erased
Oh, but aren’t there others
Enough who are owing?
So, please, don’t you cry
My benevolent Faith.”
Then, weakly, and guilty
I turn to another
And I tenderly open
My lips to her hand
“Oh, please, don’t you cry
Esperanza, my mother
Your sons are yet myriad
Throughout the land
Yes, please, don’t you cry
Esperanza, my mother
Your sons are yet myriad
Throughout the land.”
Then to Love my two empty hands
I do tender
And I hear her voice calling
So softly to me
She says, “Don’t you cry, boy
And always remember
I give of myself, in your honor
For free
The hands that have touched you
The fires that burned you
All your sins and your sorrows
You now can forget
For the slanderous tongues of the others
Return to you
Threefold in my ledgers
And settle your debt.”
And so purified, pure
And completely unworthy
I broke even as morning
Broke over the sea
Three sisters
Three wives
Three judges of mercy
Have granted one ultimate loan unto me
Three sisters
Three wives
Three judges of mercy
Have granted unlimited credit to me
