Living, living River Nile - Vocal

Waterfall through forest
Starting deep in Africa
Through the lakes and valleys
Heading on a journey North
On its way to Egypt
Full of fishes and birdlife

Living, living river
Living, living River Nile

Villages, mud-houses
Fertile soil and trees of green
Growing flax for linen
Fruit and vegetables too
Growing wheat for baking
Harvest it before the floods

Living, living river
Living, living River Nile

Flowing through the desert
Egypt full of mysteries
Pyramids and sphinxes
Great stone figures, obelisks
Mighty towers and temples
Each a special, sacred place

Living, living river
Living, living River Nile

Crocodile and ibis
Hippopotamus and goose
Fishing boats and trade ships
Sailing with the stuff of life
Flowing to a delta
River journey to the sea

Living, living river
Living, living River Nile

Living, living river
Living, living River Nile
