Текст песни Song of the Passaic (Fountains of Wayne) с переводом

The rivers run and none shall know

How long their waters yet may flow

We read the record of the past

While time withholds the future cast

Yet in their flowing to the sea

The rivers fill their destiny

And to the measure of their lays

Run on and on through endless days

And in the rise

The light and glow

Of grand old rivers in their flow

From distant hills through dales and lea

The fair passaic seeks the sea

The fair passaic seeks the sea

And overhead in arch of stone

There flows a tide so slow and prone

To will of men whose genius planned

A waterway that runs through land

Until its slow and lazy tide

O’erflows its banks on either side

And vaste expanse of wasteland fills

With ooze of water at its wilt

And in the rise

The light and glow

Of grand old rivers in their flow

From distant hills through dales and lea

The fair passaic seeks the sea

The fair passaic seeks the sea
