lirik lagu hannah james – ploughboy’s dream
i am a ploughboy stout and tall as ever drove a team
and three years since as i lay in bed i had a dreadful dream
i dreamt i drove my master’s team, both dobbin, belle and star
before a stiff and armoured plough as all my master’s are
i found the ground was baked so hard, it was more like bricks than clay;
i could not cut my furrow through, nor would my beasts obey
the more i whipped them, slashed and swore, the less the horses tried;
dobbin lay down, and belle and star ignored my threats and cries
till lo! above me appeared a youth, he seemed to hang in air
and all around a dazzling light which made my eyes to stare
“give over, cruel wretch,” he cried, “do not thy beasts abuse
for, if the ground was not so hard, would they their work refuse?
“besides, i heard you curse and swear, as if dumb beasts could know
what all thy oaths and cursing meant; it’s better far than gold
that you should know that there is one who knows thy sins full well
and what shall be thy after doom another shall thee tell.”
no more he said, but, light as air, he vanished from my sight
and with him went the sun’s bright beams, ’twas all as dark as night
then thunder roared from underground, the earth it seems agape;
blue flames broke forth and in those flames appeared an awful shape
“i soon shall call you mine,” he cried, in a voice so clear and deep
and, quivering like an aspen leaf, i woke out of my sleep
so ponder well, you ploughboys all, this dream that i have told
and if your work goes well with you, it’s worth your weight in gold
