| There is a river called the River of No Return
|
| Sometimes it’s peaceful, and sometimes wild and free
|
| Love is a traveler on the River of No Return
|
| Swept on forever to be lost in the stormy sea. |
| (Wailaree!)
|
| I can hear the river call, No return, no return, No return, no return.
|
| (Wailaree!)
|
| I can hear my lover call, «Come to me.» |
| (No return, no return)
|
| I lost my love on the river and forever my heart will yearn
|
| Gone, gone forever down the River of No Return. |
| Wailaree! |
| (Wailaree!)
|
| Wailaree!
|
| You never return to me. |
| (No return, no return) |
