Has a Moral

First 4 verses only:

Keeping harmony throughout the kingdom
Was the Queen's role
Each morning when she sang in the garden
The castle's bell would toll.

There was no one in the belfry
Pulling the bell's rope
It was the angels who were pulling
Sounding their love and hope.

This saintly Queen died giving birth
When her only son was born
Her King blew the trumpets
And declared some time to mourn.

Every morning the King would
Pull on the bell's rope
In the Queen's absence now
This is how he'd cope. . . .
