The River

Here, stands a lonely river

Never been touched by the harshness of man

Slowly and quietly meandering

Through and through the peaceful valley

The birds are singing melodies of beauty

The tulips are blooming

The dew upon the leaves glisten

Through the deep forest comes a loud

Rumbling

Fierce force

The sound of man approaches

Their metal machine pierce the earth and plow the land

Man has scolded this land

But now, as the earth stands still

And man is gone

Here, stands a lonely river
