Rivers of Babylon
By the rivers of Babylon
Where he sat down
And there he wept
When he remember Zion
It was the wicked
Carry us away captivity
Require from us a song
How can we sing King Alfa's song
In a strange land
Shout it out, brothers
Sing your song of freedom
Sing it up, sisters
By the rivers of Babylon
Where he sat down
And there he wept
When he remember Zion
It was the wicked
Carry us away captivity
Require from us a song
How can we sing King Alfa's song
In a strange land
Shout it out, my brother
By the rivers of Babylon
Where he sat down
And there he wept
When he remember Zion
By the rivers of Babylon
Where he sat down
And there he wept
When he remember Zion
By the rivers of Babylon
Where he sat down
And there he wept
When he remember Zion
Where he sat down
And there he wept
When he remember Zion
It was the wicked
Carry us away captivity
Require from us a song
How can we sing King Alfa's song
In a strange land
Shout it out, brothers
Sing your song of freedom
Sing it up, sisters
By the rivers of Babylon
Where he sat down
And there he wept
When he remember Zion
It was the wicked
Carry us away captivity
Require from us a song
How can we sing King Alfa's song
In a strange land
Shout it out, my brother
By the rivers of Babylon
Where he sat down
And there he wept
When he remember Zion
By the rivers of Babylon
Where he sat down
And there he wept
When he remember Zion
By the rivers of Babylon
Where he sat down
And there he wept
When he remember Zion
