River

With a soft tread
She drifts along her course
To the barren banks
A green charm she blows
And then with zeal and zest
Life follows!

Twinkling with silver beads
She etches a gentle path
The air around fills
With mild fragrance as she flows
And then with zeal and zest
Life follows!

With a brave heart
She crosses every barrier
Flowing silently ahead
With struggle only she knows
And then with zeal and zest
Life follows!

Defining enchantment, endless
Beauty and boundless courage
You are the life giver
With reverence we all bow
Oh! mother river guide us
So we may follow!
