Текст песни The Place Where the Rivers Run (Runrig) с переводом

I’m backing up the lorry, can’t wait for night to come

I’m sweeping out the back yard on a Friday afternoon

We’ll gather round the players and we’ll head off for the stars

Pack the van with poetry, drums and the guitars

We’ll take Billy for the whisky, Willie for the door

We’ll take Mary Kate and Lizzy for the dancing round the floor

We’ll turn this empty hall into a city full of lights

And lift the summer spirits through the passing of the night

There was laughing, and there were tears

There were so many shattered hopes and dreams

But there was treasure and 40 years

In the place where the rivers run

We’ll hammer on the two-step, we’ll lay it on the snare

Romancing the accordion, waltzing out the aires

These sacred swaying anthems, within our lover’s grasp

Stripping down the willow to the footsteps of the past

There was laughing, and there were tears

There were so many shattered hopes and dreams

But there was treasure and 40 years

In the place where the rivers run

We were kings and queens, the reels go round

It’s the badge of our culture, say it loud

And it’s all in the gift of the young and the proud

In the place where the rivers run

We’re loading out the back door, now the hour is come

Driving through the black hills with the red and rising sun

There’s a river and a distance, far as eyes can see

Home by Kyle and Broadford round by Memphis Tennessee

There was laughing, and there were tears

There were so many shattered hopes and dreams

But there was treasure and 40 years

In the place where the rivers run

In the place where the rivers run

In the place where the rivers run
