Album: Когда накроюсь медным тазом...
Song: Little Moses

(traditional)

Away by the waters so blue 
The ladies were winding their way 
While Pharoh's little daughter went down to the water 
To bathe in the cool of the day 
Before it was dark. she opened the ark 
And found the sweet babe that was there 

And away by the waters so blue 
The infant was lonely and sad 
She took him in pity and thought him so pretty 
And it made little Moses so glad 
She called him her own, her beautiful son 
And she sent for a nurse who was near 

And away by the waters so blue 
They carried that beautiful child 
To his tender mother, to his sister and brothers 
Little Moses looked happy and smiled 
His mother so good did all that she could 
To raise him and teach him with care 

And away by the sea that was red 
Little Moses the servant of God 
While in him confided, the sea was divided 
As upwards he lifted his rod 
And the jews safely crossed while Pharoh's host 
Was drownded in the waters and lost 

And away on a mountain so high 
The last that he ever did see 
With Israel victorious, his hopes were most glorious 
That soon all the Jordan be free 
When his spirit did cease, he departed in peace 
And rested in the Heavens above
