Lord of the Reedy River Songtext

von Mary Hopkin

She fell in love with a swan
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
He filled her with song

In the reedy river
In the reedy river

She fell in love with a swan
