I was born unto the river
With my eyes towards the sea
And like an arrow from its quiver
I shot into the deep
Many people crowd the banks
Where the rapids show their face
And when I joined them I heard a voice
Singing softly in the wind it sang
Oh, come back to the river
Oh, I will take you to the sea
Oh, come back to the river
Oh, I will take you to the sea
Oh, come back to the river
Oh, I will take you to the sea
