歌词
*(Verse 1)*
In a village small and fair,
Lived Kududu, maiden rare,
With eyes like stars that evening wore,
All suitors found their hopes ashore.
She turned away the blacksmith strong,
"Too loud his hammer all day long."
The baker too, with bread so sweet,
"Too flour-dusted hands and feet."
*(Chorus)*
Oh Kududu, with dreams in your gaze,
Refusing hearts, lost in a haze.
What visions danced within your head,
That led you to the river's bed?
*(Verse 2)*
Came then a stranger, tall and sleek,
With words so smooth, and voice so meek.
"A wealthy lord from lands unknown,"
He claimed the river as his throne.
His eyes a shimmer, his smile wide,
Promised joy as his bride.
Kududu, charmed by glittered lies,
Saw not the danger in disguise.
*(Chorus)*
Oh Kududu, with dreams in your gaze,
Refusing hearts, lost in a haze.
What visions danced within your head,
That led you to the river's bed?
*(Bridge)*
Beneath the moon, to the river they stole,
Her heart alight, but dark his soul.
A twist, a turn, his form it shook,
A river snake from the brook.
*(Verse 3)*
With scales that glistened like the sea,
He revealed his true decree.
"Come my bride, to depths untold,
That led you to the river's bed?
*(Bridge)*
Beneath the moon, to the river they stole,
Her heart alight, but dark his soul.
A twist, a turn, his form it shook,
A river snake from the brook.
(Verse 3)
With scales that glistened like the sea,
He revealed his true decree.
"Come my bride, to depths untold,
Where treasures shine brighter than gold."
In trust she followed, hand in hand,
To vanish from the mortal land.
Kududu’s dreams, like rivers, flowed,
Into the ocean's wide abode.
(Chorus)
Oh Kududu, with dreams in your gaze,
Refusing hearts, lost in a haze.
What visions danced within your head,
That led you to the river's bed?
(Outro)
Now whispers linger where waves do crash,
Of Kududu, and her fateful splash.
Beware the beauty of the stream,
Where more than water may it seem.
splash.
Beware the beauty of the stream,
Where more than water may it seem.
Oh Kududu, with dreams in your gaze,
Refusing hearts, lost in a haze.
What visions danced within your head,
That led you to the river's bed?
