lord of the reedy river

she fell in love with a swan

her eyes were filled with feathers

he filled her with song

in the reedy river

in the reedy river

she in her boat

long hours

she

in his royal plumage

she threw him some flowers

in the reedy river

in the reedy river

black was the night and starry

she loosened up her garments

and let fall her hair

in the reedy river

in the reedy river

in the reedy river

in the reedy river

sadly they mourn inside

lost in evening twilight

two swans glide and fly

o'er the reedy river

o'er the reedy river

she fell in love with a swan

her eyes were filled with feathers

he filled her with song

in the reedy river

in the reedy river

she fell in love with a swan
