- A young man walked through the forest
With his quiver and hunting bow
He heard a young girl singing
And followed the sound below
There he found the maiden
Who lives in the willow
He called to her as she listened
From a ring of toadstools red
'Come with me my maiden
Come from thy willow bed'
She looked at him serenely
And only shook her head.
'See me now, a ray of light in the moondance
See me now, I cannot leave this place
Hear me now, a strain of song in the forest
Don't ask me, to follow where you lead'
A young man walked through the forest
With a flower and coat of green
His love had hair like fire
Her eyes an emerald sheen
She wrapped herself in beauty
So young and so serene
He stood there under the willow
And he gave her the yellow bloom
'Girl my heart you've captured
Oh I would be your groom'
She said she'd wed him never
Not near, nor far, nor soon
'See me now, a ray of light in the moondance
See me now, I cannot leave this place
Hear me now, a strain of song in the forest
Don't ask me, to follow where you lead'
A young man walked through the forest
With an axe sharp as a knife
I'll take the green-eyed fairy
And she shall be my wife
With her I'll raise my children
With her I'll live my life
The maiden wept when she heard him
When he said he'd set her free
He took his axe and used it
To bring down her ancient tree
'Now your willow's fallen
Now you belong to me'
'See me now, a ray of light in the moondance
See me now, I cannot leave this place
Hear me now, a strain of song in the forest
Don't ask me, to follow where you lead'
She followed him out the forest, and collapsed upon the earth
Her feet had walked but a distance,
From the green land of her birth
She faded into a flower,
That would bloom for one bright eve
He could not take from the forest,
What was never meant to leave.

For those who don't know, the flower the song refers to at the end is a real flower under the term Night-blooming Cereus, which refers to a variety of different flowers, but if I recall correctly the one that only blooms at midnight once a year is call "Queen of the Night".
It perfectly depicts the selfishness this man is supposed to portrait. It always makes me sad. But it's soo beautiful sung, I can't help myself and just feel touched. Erutan is really the best!
This song has been in my playlist for years- I honestly thought it got lost in time. Great video!!(:
such a beautiful reverb, but the lyrics are very wrong at times.
Huh... Why
@@heybecaano3274 ..because the lyrics are wrong?
art is never right or wrong, art just ‘is’
@@Shubham21599 no they mean things like "she shook her hand" instead of "she shook her head". Thats what they meant by the lyrics were wrong
@@schnee_the_bun I live in one of the earthquake-affected areas in Turkey and I had internet problems while uploading this video, so I wrote automatic words and didn't try too hard.
Oh, the lyric in the description are right, but the ones on the screen are a bit off here and there.
First time listening this song❤️
It's a really good song, one of my favourites and I can't say how much I love it
I suggest you listen to more of Erutan's songs! She's very underrated and if you like songs like this, you can listen to the songs in her album "Raindancer"

I found it from somewhere and the artist's name wasn't written
Then you should've reverse image searched it, or used another piece you were able to credit
@@Dovaah I agree. The artist is : Annie Stegg Gerard ,as I mentioned before,but still no credit to her name.
@@Dovaah Totally agree. I even named the artist,but still no credit to her name.
@@gg-dl2jp i couldn't reach to internet for a while and it's still hard to but once when i have time i will

Erutan is the best! Hope she gets more fans
