The Meeting of the Waters - Ruby Murray

作曲：Traditional

There is not in the wide world a valley so sweet

As that vale in whose bosom the bright waters meet

Oh the last rays of feeling and life must depart

Ere the bloom of that valley shall fade from my heart

Ere the bloom of that valley shall fade from my heart

Yet it was not that nature had shed o'er the scene

Her purest of crystal and brightest of green

Twas not her soft magic of streamlet or hill

Oh no twas something more exquisite still

Oh no twas something more exquisite still

Sweet vale of avoca how calm could I rest

In thy bosom of shade with the friends I love best

Where the storms that we feel

In this cold world should cease

And our hearts like thy waters be mingled in peace

And our hearts like thy waters be mingled in peace
