The River Lyrics – Dan Fogelberg
Singer: Dan Fogelberg
Title: The River
I was born by a river
Rolling past a town
Given no direction
Just told to keep my head down
As I took my position
A man fired a gun
I was so steeped in tradition
That I could not run
I was raised by a river
Weaned upon the sky
And in the mirror of the waters
I saw myself learn to cry
As my tears hit the surface
I saw what had been done
I gave feet to my freedom
And I did run
Someday later
I saw the writing in the dust
It told me how I should travel
It told me who I was
I ran far from the river
Far as I could see
And as the sun hit my shoulders
I felt it burning me
How I longed for the waters
As the fire raged
How I longed for the river
As I aged
I will die by a river
As it rolls away
Bury me in the nighttime
Do not waste the day
High above the waters
That roll on to the sea
All the angels in heaven will
Laugh at me
They will laugh at me
My life was naught but a river
Rolling through my brain
Made of so many teardrops
Made of so much pain

The River – Terjemahan / Translation
Saya dilahirkan oleh sungai
Bergulir melewati kota
Tidak diberi arahan
Baru saja diberitahu untuk menundukkan kepala
Saat saya mengambil posisi saya
Seorang pria menembakkan senjata
Saya sangat mendalami tradisi
Bahwa saya tidak bisa lari
Saya dibesarkan oleh sungai
Menyapih langit
Dan di cermin perairan
Saya melihat diri saya belajar menangis
Saat air mataku menghantam permukaan
Saya melihat apa yang telah dilakukan
Saya memberi kaki pada kebebasan saya
Dan saya lari
Suatu hari nanti
Saya melihat tulisan di debu
Itu memberi tahu saya bagaimana saya harus bepergian
Itu memberi tahu saya siapa saya
Saya berlari jauh dari sungai
Sejauh yang saya bisa lihat
Dan saat matahari menyentuh bahu saya
Saya merasakannya membakar saya
Betapa saya merindukan air
Saat api berkecamuk
Betapa saya merindukan sungai
Saat saya menua
Aku akan mati di tepi sungai
Saat itu bergulir
Kubur Aku di Malam Hari
Jangan buang hari
Tinggi di atas perairan
Gulung itu ke laut
Semua malaikat di surga akan
Menertawakanku
Mereka akan menertawakan saya
Hidup saya tidak ada tetapi sungai
Berguling -guling otak saya
Terbuat dari banyak air mata
Terbuat dari banyak rasa sakit
