Donna

On a wagon bound for market
Lies a calf with a mournful eye
High above him there's a swallow
Wiging swiftly through the sky

Refrein
How the winds are laughing
They laugh with all their might
Laugh and laugh the whole day through
And half the summers night

Stop complaining said the farmer
Who told you a calf be
Why dont you have wings to fly with
Like the swallow so proud and free

Refrein

Calves are easily bound and slaughtered
Never knouwing the reason why
But whoever treasures freedom
Like the swallow has learned to fly

Refrein
