Alkonost - The River lyrics

Artist: Alkonost

album: The River


Waves are so light
Carried by the flow
Down by the shore
There's a boatman's home
The old ferryman
Old and skillful carrier!
Sail your airy boat
Over silver waves
Graceful boat is light and so firm his hand
People overseas recognize that man
Glare skims over waves and spreads everywhere
Fame of man, with whom river secret shared
Someone calls him sage, no one knows his age
Eyes like those of youth, didn't know the ruth
Voice is sonorous, speech is beautiful
He perceived the gist of troubles and disease
Freely river
Overflows with waves
Plash of a stream
Quiet weep of cane...
Drive your airy boat
Old experienced carrier
Drive your airy boat
Over silver moon
Graceful boat is light, rumors day and night
Bring him silk and gold - lavish gifts of folk
They all want to know, they all want to see
Secrets of the one, with whom the river speaks
Father! Guide us now, share your wisdom, please
How to live with fun, walk the path of bliss
How to not astray, not to drift away
Send our hearts like ships to the sunny rays
He lived near the quay and the river whirled away
All his griefs and sorrows are drowned in deep waters
He conceived all symbols and predestinations
River's gently motion was his inspiration
River boundless, dreamlike shores to rest
House from grass and cane takes the yearn away
Graceful boat is light and so firm is hand
Morning rays of sun - pleasure for this man
River wild and fast, flowing never ends
Through the winter snows, summer rains and storms
All will dash away and return someday
Love will found its way through the love and pain
