Music Maker
Copyright 1995 Mary Bertke
Heart-stopper, breath-taker,
magic, life, and music-maker,
Come and free our hearts again
from the worldly cares of men.
Come and set our spirits free
to dance, to sing out merrily.
For a night, pipe away our woes.
Watch the merry music go
about the table to and fro.
Send the call throughout the land
to join the red-rose-bordered band.
Heart-stopper, breath-taker,
magic, life, and music-maker,
Come and free our hearts again
from the worldly cares of foolish men.
