When You Are Sad Stanley Grill

When you are sad
The mother of the stars weeps too
And all her starlight is with sorrow mad
And tears of fire fall gently in the dew

When you are sad
The mother of the wind mourns too
And her old wind that no mirth ever had
Wanders and wails before my heart most true

When you are sad
The mother of the wave sighs too
And her dim wave bids man be no more glad
And then the whole world’s trouble weeps with you
