Paul Robeson - The Canoe Song (From "Sanders of the River") lyrics

Artist: Paul Robeson

album: Crossing Borders: Showman & Human Rights Activist


Ayee oko, ayege der
Ayee oko, ayege der
Ayee oko, Ayee oko, Ayee oko
Ayee oko, ayege der
Ayee oko, ayege der
The current swings
The water sings
A river rhyme
For light is a burden of labour
When each bends his back with his neighbour
So each for all
We stand or fall
And all for each
Until we reach
The journeys end
Sandy the strong
Sandy the wise
Righter of wrong
Hater of lies
Laughed as he fought
Worked as he played
As he has taught
Let it be made
Away you go
Ayega der
And make it so
Ayega der
Together all
The paddles fall
In tune and time
So look alive, ayege der
And dip and drive, ayege der
The current swings
The water sings
A river rhyme
For light is a burden of labour
When each bends his back with his neighbour
So each for all
We stand or fall
And all for each
Untill we reach
The journeys end
