|
See the hearts that deeply woe |
|
On the banks of Nile they watch their loved ones being washed away |
|
Path of life as we all know |
|
Isn't wide enough for all of us to walk through the day |
|
Flow with the flood of Nile |
|
Hear the cry of deep waters |
|
Go to the distant isle |
|
Where the sunset glows |
|
Flow with the flood of Nile |
|
Leave your sons and dear daughters |
|
They will still stay awhile |
|
While the river flows |
|
While the river flows |
|
Sorrow's sister human joy |
|
Shall not bring the tears of laughter in our eyes today |
|
Ferryman's grave load on joy |
|
And we lay to rest our loved ones in this mournful way |
|
Flow with the flood of Nile |
|
Hear the cry of deep waters |
|
Go to the distant isle |
|
Where the sunset glows |
|
Flow with the flood of Nile |
|
Leave your sons and dear daughters |
|
They will still stay awhile |
|
While the river flows |
|
While the river flows |
