Who is like my child

Who's so lovely and wild'

Oh, my little bird

By the river I have heard

My lover calls

In fall and spring

She says

Keep your eyes on heron's wings

She's coming soon

Let's dance and sing

For the joy a new life brings

Strong and graceful, too

Like your mother

In red and blue

Love I never knew

Filled my heart

When I held you

My lover calls

In fall and spring

She says

Keep your eyes on heron's wings

She's coming soon

Let's dance and sing

For the joy that her life brings
