She lady among the water lilies
And gazed up at the sun
Surrounded by her sweet companions
She whispered to one by one

Her hair flowed like the water
Her skin was smooth as stone
My eyes beheld no maiden like her
Nor that my soul has known

She swam among the river Glisten
And to her Sirens song I listened
As she pulled my hands beneath the waves

I lay right beside her still
Accompanied by her as well
Fear not, for in drowning in her
I've already been saved
