Down along the river
Underneath the trees
Sat a lovely maiden
Singing in the breeze
Calling to her lover
Getting no reply
Still she leaves her hair down
Still she'll never cry
Will the swallows rebuild their
Nests above her hair?
Will the summer fade and will
Winter find her there?
Sounds of rushing water
Harmonize her tunes
Flying fish leap higher
Reaching for the moon
She rеgrets her feelings
Still she praisеs love
Giving up her memories
To the skies above
Will the swallows rebuild their
Nests above her head?
Will the summer fade and will
Winter find her dead?
