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
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
