If you listen you can hear it call
Wailaree Wailaree
There is a river
called the river of no return
Sometimes it's peaceful
and sometimes wild and free
Love is a traveler
on the river of no return
Swept on forever to be lost
in the stormy sea Wailaree
I can hear the river call
No return no return
No return no return Wailaree
I can hear my lover call
Come to me
I lost my love on the river and
forever my heart will yearn
Gone gone forever
down the river of no return
Wailaree Wailaree Wailaree
You never return to me
No return no return
