Shame on the ladies and shame on the lords
When even they do not see the worth
Of a good, pure soul that is in a babe
Richer is he, yes rich indeed, who prevails in their grief

When people smash a dream, stay strong
When you lose the way, sing your life song
It is then you find, before long
You found riches they can only dream of,
You knew the way all along

Shame on the ladies and shame on the lords
When even they do not see the worth
Of a good, pure soul that is in a babe
Richer is he, yes rich indeed, who prevails in their grief

How will the rich man boast when he was born so? Nay,
It is you who grows the hard way
But may the lullaby lead you like the day,
May my lullaby see the light of day

Shame on the ladies and shame on the lords
When even they do not see the worth
Of a good, pure soul that is in a babe
Richer is he, yes rich indeed, who prevails in their grief

Richer is he, yes rich indeed, who prevails in their grief
