Explanation
A very difficult song, with many flats and sharps, and also with many ascending scales where you often have to move your thumb underneath another finger. And you must often use your little finger as well. In the penultimate line, you see a few exclamation marks next to the 5. This fingering is intended for children with not-too-large hands. Perhaps you find a different fingering easier. Just do what suits you best. Play the song at a quiet tempo, calm and stately. You'll see the swans gliding through the water.
Play slowly
