I walked among the reeds today, a stranger in this land. 
 Someone, somewhere far away offered me a hand 
 that whisked me to this place unknown. Dirty crimson sky 
 at noon harsh upon my eye, but where I tried to cry 
 my pain I found no breath to speak it plain. 
 
 I fell among the reeds today, this land to me a stranger. 
 Someone, somewhere far away brought me to this danger. 
 The bloodred moon of this dark night was pleasing to my sight, 
 but otherworldly cries of loon had put me in a fright 
 so that I fled, hoping for safety in vain. 
 
 I died among the reeds today, my vision it did falter. 
 Someone, somewhere very near, my vision it did alter 
 so that I could see the villain. She kissed my cheek 
 and planted tears upon my face. This land was just a peek. 
 She whispered in my ear, `` Go forth, my love, no pain.''
