In A Small Quiet House by The Edge of The Swamp
In A Small Quiet House by The Edge of The Swamp
She gave her son all the money she had and asked him to go for some medicine.
On his way to the town, the young man saw there was a party.
And the music, the ladies seduced him into it, so he decided to stay there.
Look how things are when the devil tempts you, my friend.
Carao was dancing with the most beautiful girl in the party.
The night fell when a neighbour arrived to the party, with great sadness he said
“So sorry for interrupting you, my friend Carao, but your mother is already dead.”
But Carao was really lost in the moment he was spending there and said:
It doesn’t matter. I’m not leaving. Anyway, there’ll be time for crying”
Poor Carao! The spell of the party blinded him to all his misfortune.
Poor mom! She died waiting for her medicine that never arrived.
And the story goes that right there! Because he was an ungrateful son
God punished him.
