Oh Graceful Swan

Since you went away, the water has grown cold A light has gone ~ which shone within my soul I need you here to feast my eyes upon So please swim back to me, oh graceful swan. More beautiful than any summer rose Upon the tranquil lake your white sheen glowed The scene is bare ~ wherever have you gone? Please come back to stay oh graceful swan. Tomorrow, in the coolness of the day I will search for you along the waterway No other swan will ever please my eye Until I see your snowy picture gliding by.
