River Life In River Line
You and I who have dipped our joint heart
In your green tide and have exchanged beats
On your boats have left our loads of flirts
Do know your tales both dismal and lit
Into the boats sails salted struggle
Blood sweat and tears for flowers of love
On busy banks business and bustle
We live and die, you flow on superb
Listen to the murmuring guitar
Look at the fishermen and women
In love-sweat mirth and life in vigour
River of life in the spring and rain
