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
