Original text with translation
The Afton
Eddi Reader
The dam on our doorstep
Frozen over, undiscovered
Covered nature’s sculptures fine
And the man-made beauty shines
For the first time in life
I behold the Afton’s might
And the waterworks don’t blight
Nor the railings mar this sight
To see the joy in the mundane
Feel the life force in the plain
Is that not the why you came?
Still you’re leaving…
Still you’re leaving…
Still you’re leaving…
Still you’re leaving…
To the Afton
Still you’re leaving…
To the Afton
Still you’re leaving…
To the Afton
Still you’re leaving…
Still you’re leaving, all the same
For the first time in life
I behold the Afton’s might
And the waterworks don’t blight
Nor the railings mar this sight
To see the joy in the mundane
Feel the life force in the plain
Is that not the why you came?
Still you’re leaving…
Still you’re leaving…
Still you’re leaving…
Still you’re leaving…
To the Afton
Still you’re leaving…
To the Afton
Still you’re leaving…
To the Afton
Still you’re leaving…
Still you’re leaving
All the same
