From the land of the sky-blue water They brought a captive maid, And her eyes, they were lit with lightning; Her heart was not afraid! And he steals to her lodge at dawning And woos her with his flute. She is sick for the sky-blue water, The captive maid is mute. But he steals to her lodge at dawning And woos her with his flute. She is sick for the sky-blue water, The captive maid is mute.
