They Wanted
Shut the door with seven keys,
secure the latch with seven locks.
What will be, will be
and they'll cut her hands.
They wanted her to lower
her eyes to her chest,
for her to say, without delay
to those in charge: "yes".
They wanted a queen
and the queen wants rags,
an old skirt and wonders
in the evening.
Shut the door, close the latch
on the fences that lay behind the wall.
They won't let him go,
and they'll cut his hands.
They wanted him to fight,
and to hand the enemy's head
from the chair and turn the skin
into a coat.
They wanted a handsome prince
as fierce as a lion,
and the prince, innocent
his heart breaks.
