Nothing Was Ill

Jesu, we w're friends and naught was ill 'midst us.

When we met and how we talked - we do not get memory;

But, since we had, we w're infants and had them all things merry.

We walked, we talked, we blinked, we yelled, we always sat together;

On that straw, amidst the day, we pecked the paddy tether'.

Oh, time was that we grew, we sang, Not at all a muss,

Jesu, we w're friendsandthing was good mids' us.

You rich I poor, you bloke I quicker all eyed us astonished;

But, kept on chain of ' break and join', we plucked berries unceased.

I went to you, you used to come, your mom's adeal smile;

I call the day to come again you tore my papa's file.

But even the day, we w're nothing but only own brothers,

Jesu, we were friends and nothing was ill 'midst us.

How say to me to forget trice, we fell of eating fish;

On kief, in fest, as mad, we laughed and slipped on clumsy miss.

How close w're we that laughing made us vow to change o'r halves.

Though w're stag and, after that, we lapsed them as if laugh's.

Just later some, we got married and little found fuss'.

Still we w're friends and none could part but us.

The day was black, your daughter set to marriage and I settled;

As a go-between, your better half blamed me, friendship crippled.

Yes, it was sad but sadder than how you broke up my faith;

You trusted her, no trust in me, as years passed we chaste.

O, Ruthless Friend! God forgive not for so untruly gush,

Chum, we are friends and nothing ill all amidst us.

I try, but not forget you...why? I do not know... your wife;

Since then, 2 years went and you went on the road strive.

I dare not, you care' no, as we were never known;

Still I have been waiting for your utter, bitter frown.

Silly, do not break it or, you either fall in bush,

I am waiting for something that' s sure amidst us.

Jesu! We are friends and nothing is ill amidst us.
