RIVER, RIVER
- RIVER, river, running through the land,
- Are you a traveller over foreign sand?
- Are you a carrier from town to town,
- River, river, as you hurry down?
- Yes, I’m a carrier from town to town:
- Here are ships with white sails, there are boats with brown,
- What shall they bring you, what will you send?
- I’ll be your carrier to the land’s end.
