(Music by Franz Schubert, Poem by Wilhelm Müller, English Adaptation by Sting)
2
In the snow there
3
Stands a hurdy gurdy man,
4
With his frozen fingers
5
Plays as best he can.
6
Barefoot on the ice
7
He shuffles to and fro
8
And his empty plate
9

No one wants to hear
11
His hurdy gurdy song,
12
Hungry dogs surround him
13
and before too long
14
He will fall asleep
15
And then before too long
16
He'll just let it happen,
17
Happen come what may.
18
Play his hurdy gurdy
19
'Till his dying day,
20
Watching you, old man,
21
I see myself in you.
22
One day I will play
23
