[00:15.85]A winter day
[00:18.66]With cold white light
[00:21.97]A child was born
[00:24.93]So fair a sight
[00:28.40]But as she grew
[00:31.44]It was to be known
[00:34.81]That on this child
[00:37.84]A curse was thrown
[00:47.64]She never uttered
[00:50.97]Word nor sound
[00:53.97]To walk in silence
[00:57.10]She was bound
[01:00.43]One day alone
[01:03.47]A strange bird sang
[01:06.67]To lift the curse
[01:09.46]This must be done
[01:13.32]First you must find
[01:15.80]An axe of gold
[01:19.57]Then an apple
[01:22.81]That never grows old
[01:26.19]Last you must find
[01:28.94]The water of life
[01:32.23]That quenches the thirst
[01:35.14]And heals all strife
[01:51.19]For seven years
[01:54.42]She wandered in pain
[01:57.97]And all her efforts
[02:01.29]Ended in vain
[02:04.26]The by a lake
[02:07.34]One morning clear
[02:10.69]She saw herself
[02:13.28]And lost all fear
[02:17.17]The golden axe
[02:19.87]Is my courage and will
[02:23.38]The apple my heart
[02:26.59]That never grows chill
[02:29.96]The water of life
[02:32.65]Is the gift to give
[02:36.25]It strengthens the soul
[02:38.88]And the joy to live
[02:42.82]So ends the tale
[02:45.25]Of the maiden who longed
[02:49.17]And lifted the curse
[02:52.10]And made her song
