Song Lyrics

The lake lay Blue, below the hill.
O'er it, as I looked, there flew across the water
Cold and still, a bird,
Whose wings were palest blue.
The sky above was blue at last.

The sky beneath me blue in blue
A moment, ere the bird had passed.
It caught his image as he flew
The lake lay blue below the hill.
