Текст песни River Jordan (Vusi Mahlasela) с переводом

Mother mother

I saw you cross the river Jordan

Mother mamma waam

I’ve been listening to you

So close and yet so far away

I’ve never stopped hearing your words

Since that Easter morning

It is now very clear

That the meaning of your last wish for me

Revealed my destiny

Mother mother

I saw you cross the river Jordan

With the most positive courage

When they washed your feet

Your last communion I was there

You fell down among us with a smile

And lay looking up

With the look of another world

You departed surrounded by the singing

And the praises of the hallelujia

Some envied your departure

Some came to offer what ever little

Comfort they could give
