WATERS RIPPLE AND FLOW
English version by Deems Taylor

Soprano:
Waters ripple and flow, slowly passes each day;
Faithless lover of mins, stay no longer away;
Faithless lover of mine, stay no longr away.

Baritons:
Dear one, well dost thou know why fond lovers must part;
Wherefore falters thy faith? why so timid thy heart?
Wherefore falters thy faith? why so timid thy heart?

All:
Dearest lover cone back; end the vigil I keep
Thine the key to my heart, mine, without thee to weep!
Thine the key to my heart, mine, without thee to weep.

When the mountain shall turn. then mu happiness dawns,
Then my happiness dawns, then shall freedom be mine;
Then my happiness dawns, then shall freedom be mine.

Lo, the mountain has turned, now the victory is thine
Now my happiness dawns, now shall freedom be mine;
Now my happiness dawns, now shall freedom be mine.
