GUEST,Alinya Lyr Add: Hard is the Fortune of All Womankind (9) RE: Lyr Add: Hard is the Fortune of All Womankind 08 Apr 10


The lyrics I learned were somewhat different. They came from an English friend who used the melody discussed above only sang instead;
How hard is the fortune of all womankind,
Forever subjected, forever confined,
The parent controls us until we are wives,
The husband enslaves us the rest of our lives.

If fondly we love, yet we dare not reveal,
But secretly languish, compelled to conceal,
Deny'd every freedom of Life to enjoy,
We're sham'd if we're kind, we're blamed if we're coy.
