| Down by the river
| Rio abajo
|
| In the town by the river
| En el pueblo junto al río
|
| They need our help
| Necesitan nuestra ayuda
|
| Close to the river
| Cerca del río
|
| I’ve seen friends of the river
| he visto amigos del rio
|
| Now they are all gone
| Ahora todos se han ido
|
| Down by the river
| Rio abajo
|
| In the town by the river
| En el pueblo junto al río
|
| They toll the bell
| Tocan la campana
|
| And if we give them what they need
| Y si les damos lo que necesitan
|
| Maybe they survive
| Tal vez sobrevivan
|
| Oh let us praise the holy sea
| Oh, alabemos el mar sagrado
|
| Maybe they’ll survive
| Tal vez sobrevivan
|
| So let us give them what they need
| Así que démosles lo que necesitan
|
| And maybe they’ll survive
| Y tal vez sobrevivan
|
| Maybe they’ll survive
| Tal vez sobrevivan
|
| Into the river
| En el río
|
| They jumped into the river
| Ellos saltaron al río
|
| To save your souls
| Para salvar sus almas
|
| In the town by the river
| En el pueblo junto al río
|
| Some wise men they shiver
| Algunos hombres sabios se estremecen
|
| Because they are told
| porque se les dice
|
| To ask the old river
| Para preguntarle al viejo río
|
| If it is right to deliver
| Si es correcto entregar
|
| Just sing their song
| Solo canta su canción
|
| And if we give them what they need
| Y si les damos lo que necesitan
|
| Maybe they survive
| Tal vez sobrevivan
|
| Oh let us praise the holy sea
| Oh, alabemos el mar sagrado
|
| Maybe they’ll survive
| Tal vez sobrevivan
|
| So let us give them what they need
| Así que démosles lo que necesitan
|
| And maybe they’ll survive
| Y tal vez sobrevivan
|
| Maybe they’ll survive
| Tal vez sobrevivan
|
| Drown in the river
| Ahogarse en el río
|
| Would you drown in the river
| ¿Te ahogarías en el río?
|
| To find souls of glass
| Para encontrar almas de vidrio
|
| From the town by the river
| Del pueblo junto al río
|
| Hear the screams make you shiver
| Escucha los gritos que te hacen temblar
|
| Do they change your fate
| ¿Cambian tu destino?
|
| Yes you are a believer
| Sí, eres un creyente
|
| When it rises the river
| Cuando sube el río
|
| Sigh press and give birth
| Suspiro prensa y parir
|
| And if we give them what they need
| Y si les damos lo que necesitan
|
| Maybe they survive
| Tal vez sobrevivan
|
| Oh let us praise the holy sea
| Oh, alabemos el mar sagrado
|
| Maybe they’ll survive
| Tal vez sobrevivan
|
| So let us give them what they need
| Así que démosles lo que necesitan
|
| And maybe they’ll survive | Y tal vez sobrevivan |
