Abie Rottenberg & Lev Tahor Little Tree Lyrics

I am but a littel tree, that only seeks to live in peace
To spread my seeds uponthe earth,
and firm my roots within the soil of the land my father gave to me,
and his father gave to himmade by father of us all

but the woodsman,
with an ax poised in his hand
said "it's my sacred duty,
to clear away this land
and on this place that I call home
I will plant a fiels of stone"

chorus:

while the sly fox,
aloof cool and remote
said "I cannot be distracted by bloodstains on my coat
I can feel the woodsman's pain
perhaps the tree should not remain"

chorus:

and the eagle,
high above so far away
said "it's in my best interest to see the small tree stay No it need thrive like I
but why not let it stay alive"
though strom and wind may came,
I'll bend but never break and like all those before me,
I'll stay true my faith That soon will came a day when all will gather 'neath my shade

chorus
