I looked in my heart while the wild swans over.
And what did I see I had not before?
Only a question less or a question more;
to match the flight of wild birds flying.
Tiresome heart, forever living and dying,
House without air, I leave and lock your door.
Wild swans, come over the town, come over
The town again, trailing your legs and crying!
