[Verse 1]
           
Who   will lov

    
e a little spa

rrow?
              
Who's traveled

             
 far and cries

     
 for rest?
            
"Not I," said 

    
the Oak Tree,
             
"I won't share

            
 my branches w

    
ith no sparrow

's nest
             
And my blanket

            
 of leaves won

             
't warm her co

   
ld breast."

[Verse 2]
           
Who   will lov

    
e a little spa

rrow?
             
And who will s

              
peak a kindly 


word?
            
"Not I," said 

    
the Swan,
            
"The entire id

     
ea is utterly 

absurd,
             
I'd be laughed

            
 at and scorne

             
d if the other

              
 Swans heard."

[Verse 3]
           
Who   will tak

    
e pity in his 

heart
             
And who will f

              
eed a starving

 
 sparrow?
            
"Not I," said 

    
the Golden Whe

at,
             
"I would if I 

          
could but I ca

nnot I know,
             
I need all my 

           
grain to prosp

       
er and grow."

[Verse 4]
           
Who   will lov

    
e a little spa

rrow?
             
Will no one wr

            
ite her eulogy

?
            
"I will," said

     
 the Earth,
             
"For all I've 

        
created return

s unto me,
             
From dust were

           
 ye made and d

             
ust ye shall b

    
e."
