Murpholly Lyr Req: lyrics with mushroom (edible) ??? (18) RE: Lyr Req: lyrics with mushroom (edible) ??? 02 Jun 14


Engleburt Humperdink (classical composer) wrote a lovely song for Hansel and Gretl based on a folk tune. I often sing it at clubs - English translation:-

A little man is standing within the wood
He wears a purple cloak and a small black hood
Tell me tell me if you can
What's the name of this small man
In his purple cloak and his small black hood

This little man is silent and makes no sound
He stands with only one foot upon the ground
Tell me who this man can be
For he will not answer me
Standing there with one foot upon the ground
