Once Upon A Time by T. J. Shemaly
Remember, when I had you on my shoulder
beneath the heavens of that little house
Many are the moments of joy and laughter
we had in that neat little house

You are walking now, my little niece
and I, to the grave I must come
Weak are my bones, and a white hair piece
blackened eyes and a face full of gloom

A rose ye are to be come in the midst
a wild one, like no one had become before
And lying on my woody bed to the lowest
I must be with a name not any more

No wife nor kids, I said Nay to all
for in this life, I did not see any pearls
But only you in my heart against the all
for only you can enlighten my heart's jails

Now, for home I had lost with youth
I said goodbye to the old green tree
Where I carried you and stood both
and leaves you grasped O ye my Lily

Ye go my sweet over and over
with white soul like the clouds
And I will always remember
once upon time, I had a house
