Print the Lyrics
(1947) Gian Carlo Menotti

The sun is fallen and it lies in blood.
The moon is weaving bandages of gold.
O Black Swan where, oh where is my lover gone?
Torn and tattered is my bridal gown and my lamp is lost
and my lamp is lost.

With silver needles and with silver thread
The stars stitch a shroud for the dying sun
O Black Swan where oh where has my lover gone?
I had given him a kiss of fire and a golden ring
And a golden ring

Don't you hear your lover moan?
Eyes of glass and feet of stone,
Shells for teeth and weeds for tongue,
Deep, deep, down in the river's bed
he's looking for the ring.
Eyes wide open, never asleep
he's looking for the ring, looking for the ring.

The spools unravel and the needles break.
The sun is buried and the stars weep.
O black wave, O black wave take me away with you
I will share with you my golden hair,
and my bridal crown, and my bridal crown.
Oh, take me down with you.
Take me down to my wand'ring lover
