Te lucis ante terminum
-
Good souls, I would have you know
-
O pray for the souls of all that fall
-
I am the ferryman
-
I come from the Westland
-
You mock me! You ask me!
-
Clear as a sky without a Cloud May be a mother's mind
-
How can I take you in my ferry boat
-
Let me remind you
-
This mad woman seems, Though her mind may be wand'ring
-
Curlew River
-
Look! While you were list'ning to my story
-
O Curlew River, cruel Curlew
-
Who would have guess'd that the boy was her child?
-
Hoping, I wander'd on
-
He whose life was full of promise
-
And, O, to the numberless
-
From the river, I hear voices
-
Go your way in peace, mother
-
Good souls, we have shown you here
