Однажды грянула буря, и лодка перевернулась. Лира без раздумий бросилась на помощь, вынесла юношу на берег и исчезла, не успев даже заговорить с ним. Но добрый ветер донёс её песню до сердца юноши. Он узнал этот голос, и, когда снова услышал его у берега, понял, кто спас его. Он протянул руку к Лире, и чудо произошло — её хвост превратился в лёгкие человеческие ноги.
