esse menino sabia das coisas. -------- songs of innocence william blake (1757-1827) piping down the valleys wild, piping songs of peasant glee, on a cloud I saw a child, and he, laughing, said to me: 'pipe a song about a lamb!' so I piped with merry cheer. 'piper, pipe that song again;' so I piped: he wept to hear. 'drop thy pipe, thy happy pipe; sing thy songs of happy cheer!' so I sang the same again, while he wept with joy to hear. 'piper, sit thee down and write in a book, that all may read.' so he vanished from my sight; and I plucked a hollow reed, and I made a rural pen, and I stain'd the water clear, and I wrote my happy songs every child may joy to hear.
