The river flows slowly through a green forest land
A young mother smiles softly as her child takes her hand
She takes the child in her arms and sings this lullaby
As the child gazes in wonder at the river, trees, and sky

Oh, blue is the river, and blue is the sky
Clear is the wind as you blink closed your eyes
Darkness may fall, but the light will arise
Blue is the river, blue like your eyes

The snow, it falls softly on the village ground
While babes are fast sleeping, there's nary a sound
So child, close your eyes as I sing my lullaby
And dream wondrous dreams of the river, trees, and sky

Oh, white is the snowfall, and white the bright stars
Pure is the hope I keep in my heart
Darkness may fight, but the light will yet win
White is the snowfall, white like your skin
