She was walking with a spade<br />
And she was digging the graves<br />
And filled them with corpses<br />
And covered with roses<br />
<br />
People like little scared lambs -<br />
Locked and frightened<br />
Were dying<br />
It seems they were sleeping<br />
No sound were heard<br />
Just upgrowth of graves<br />
It seems they were hiding<br />
From what?<br />
<br />
She was walking with a spade<br />
And she was digging the graves<br />
And filled them with corpses<br />
And covered with roses<br />
<br />
Silent grave-diggers were dragging<br />
Stark figures -<br />
Dark art of the Plague! <br />
Sullen grave-diggers were covering<br />
With earth corps by corps<br />
Without coffins without tears<br />
<br />
She was walking with a spade<br />
And she was digging the graves<br />
And filled them with corpses<br />
And covered with roses<br />
<br />
Months were passing and life grew dumb<br />
Trees were trembling like lambs<br />
There were none to bury the last<br />
They all found calm in the dust<br />
Only wind swept their ashes<br />
Only sun burnt their remains
