Veni, Veni, Venias

Carl Orff Carl Orff

Come, Come, Come

water and wine
I want water and wine
to stone and grape
I want water in your hands
and wine when it's fitting

water and wine
I want water and wine
the sea that returns to me
I want the water of sailors

to sorrow
it's useless to add more
too much tannin
makes me sink
in fresh water, in a disaster zone
it's useless to add more
it's useless to add more

water and wine
I want water and wine
the earth and the venom
I want the water of mornings

as good as bread
the wine that speaks to me
and the water that says nothing

fish in one
poison in the other
water and wine

to sorrow
it's useless to add more
too much tannin
makes me sink
in fresh water, in a disaster zone
it's useless to add more
it's useless to add more
