Maankind
Gek is diegene die het niet begrijpt,
Zo vertelt een legende
Een zigeunerin
Smeekte de maan
Al wenend
Om haar een man te geven
Tot aan zonsopgang
Jij zal een man bezitten
Vanaf de hemel sprak de maan
Maar daarvoor in ruil
Wil ik het allereerste kind
dat je zal baren
en om zich niet eenzaam te voelen
begon ze stilaan zelfs van het kindje te houden
De maan wil moeder worden
Maar er is niemand
die haar vrouw kan maken
Maan,zeg nu zelf
Wat ga je in hemelsnaam
Doen met een kind van vlees en bloed
Uit die nacht
Ontstond een kind met een huid zo wit als de sneeuw
En met muisgrijze ogen ipv olijfgroen
Albinokindje van de maan
Gedoemd kind van een vreemde
Dit mag niet verzwegen worden
De maan wil moeder worden
Maar er is niemand
die haar vrouw kan maken
Maan,zeg nu zelf
Wat ga je in hemelsnaam
Doen met een kind van vlees en bloed
Haar man voelde zich bedrogen
Ging naar zijn vrouw met een mes in zijn hand
En ontnam haar het leven
Je hebt me bedrogen
Nam het kind in zijn armen
En liet het alleen achter in het bos
De maan wil moeder worden
Maar er is niemand
die haar vrouw kan maken
Maan,zeg nu zelf
Wat ga je in hemelsnaam
Doen met een kind van vlees en bloed
En bij nachten dat het volle maan is dat
Omdat het kindje goedgezind is
En als het kindje droevig is
Zal de maan zich halveren om het kindje te troosten
Om het zo in slaap te wiegen
