4895 Songs of an Old Forest: Melody 6 1 [by S. David][art by Vladimir Vasilyev]

Does anyone still sing
Their songs once
Hundreds roamed
The woodlands
Once herds roamed
The lands of the Don
Once theirs was
A melody of the Old
Forest but man
Man does not allow
Man does not reproduce
In season but at all times
And it was men
Who cut down the Forest
Took the land from
The trees the Old Forest
Is almost gone disappeared
The Old Gods were not
Strong enough
Smart enough
They turned
They fled
After today
Who will sing
The song carry
The melody
Of the Old Forest
