The Lady's Gift lyrics

As if in a dream she approached me Her beauty beyond all compare Three melodies were her gift to me My harp strung by her golden hair The joys of life and wonders to come The piercing pain of lost love The lady gave her gift to me Those otherwordly melodies That brought my maiden back to me The river-elf's lost love On the water-throne she was sitting My maiden was under his spell By the river's side I was kneeling The three melodies I did play And my love come back to my arms But I'll never be rid of his pain The lady gave her gift to me Those otherwordly melodies That brought my maiden back to me The river-elf's lost love Out of the mist he appeared So fair but so cold Drowning in turbulent dreams Her grief knowing no bounds The lady gave her gift to me Those otherwordly melodies That brought my maiden back to me The river-elf's lost love
