lyrics

Orphan Boy
I want to talk, about a boy
He only spoke, just once
In a monastery he’s grown
Among the silence and the work

He knew five tongues
He’d read it all
But until then he never spoke

The monks the taught
To this orphan boy
He never asked
Why there he was

One springtime day
What happened was
He wanted to go
To see the world

Strange was for all the monks
When they realized
That he had gone

He was on the road
When an old lady he crossed
Started to talk he couldn’t stop

He wanted to say
All what he knew
He was so sure about the world

Amazed was of all the beauty he saw
He was surprised of his own voice
His story life he told
And how by the monks he was found

After a while the old lady spoke
And she said “ boy, I am your mom”

Poor little boy,
when he understood
all the things, that in this world he didn't know
and after this, he never spoke
a word no more



Inspired on a short tale by C. Pizarro
