(cover of Donovan Leitch's "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,

He 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 off her garments and let fall her hair

In the reedy river, in the reedy river.

Sadly they moan and sigh

Whilst in the evening twilight

two swans glide and fly

Over the reedy river, over the reedy river.

She fell in love with a swan
