We're going to live with you
Down by the riverside,
In a small cabin which stands on the bank.
Believe me that not a single soul
Would feel the resentment
That they once had left their abode in the sands.
REFRAIN:
Right on the bank of that very wild creek,
Right on the bank of that very calm creek.
Hidden in shrubs by the sacred blue pools,
Warmed by the woods of the nameless wild creek.
Your movements quite soon would become smooth and effortless,
Your swagger and gestures would be wary and ease.
And not a soul ever would recall the most precious
Down by the bank of this serene flowing creek.
REFRAIN
And if one bad day a misfortune would come,
You’d search for a pebble by the cliffs of the creek.
Please read what cold waters on its surface had cut,
And this very secret you forever must keep.
REFRAIN
