[00:08.709]Ten miles down Reedy River
[00:13.169]a pool of water lies
[00:17.022]And all the year it mirrors
[00:21.029]the changes in the skies
[00:25.108]Within that pool's broad bosom
[00:28.480]is room for all the stars
[00:32.365]Its bed of sand has drifted o'er
[00:36.682]countless rocky bars
[00:40.327]Around the lower edges
[00:43.878]there waves a bed of reeds
[00:47.740]Where water-rats are hidden
[00:51.825]and where the wild duck breeds
[00:55.512]And grassy slopes rise gently
[00:59.417]to ridges long and low
[01:02.896]Where groves of wattle flourish
[01:06.883]and native bluebells grow
[01:10.611]Beneath the granite ridges
[01:14.271]the eye may just discern
[01:17.860]Where Rocky Creek emerges
[01:21.366]from deep green banks of fern
[01:25.235]And, standing tall between them
[01:29.039]the drooping she-oaks cool
[01:32.580]The hard, blue-tinted waters
[01:36.164]before they reach the pool
[01:47.340]Ten miles down Reedy River
[01:51.184]one Sunday afternoon
[01:55.094]I rode with Mary Campbell
[01:59.020]to that broad, bright lagoon
[02:02.882]We left our horses grazing
[02:06.440]'til shadows climbed the peak
[02:10.179]And strolled beneath the she-oaks
[02:14.007]on the banks of Rocky Creek
[02:17.755]Then home along the river
[02:21.499]that night we rode a race
[02:25.297]And the moonlight lent a glory
[02:29.305]to Mary Campbell's face
[02:33.016]I pleaded for my future
[02:36.704]all through that moonlight ride
[02:40.469]Until our weary horses
[02:44.272]drew closer side by side
[02:48.134]Ten miles from Ryan's Crossing
[02:51.795]and five below the peak
[02:55.872]I built a little homestead
[02:59.349]on the banks of Rocky Creek
[03:03.091]I cleared the land and fenced it
[03:06.901]and plowed the rich red loam
[03:11.110]My first crop was golden
[03:14.332]when I brought Mary home
[03:18.109]
[03:48.452]Now still down Reedy River
[03:52.364]the grassy she-oaks sigh
[03:55.869]The water holes still mirror
[03:59.874]the pictures in the sky
[04:03.844]The golden sand is drifting
[04:07.105]across the rocky bars
[04:10.853]And over all forever
[04:14.555]go sun and moon and stars
[04:18.364]But of the hut I built
[04:22.075]there are no traces now
[04:26.057]And many rains have leveled
[04:29.774]the furrows of my plow
[04:33.515]The glad bright days have vanished
[04:36.976]for somber branches wave
[04:40.969]Their wattle-blossom golden
[04:44.882]above my Mary's grave
[04:50.995]
