I am a river, frozen in the heart of the great glacier in distant mountain top,

with the first sun, I break her heart and start my journey.

Ah! the joy of breaking free! Forgetting the pain of the bleeding mother behind.

I dance, and break and flow down making a fall here and abandoning a channel there.

Would you blame me for breaking the frozen embrace, oh my awestruck visitor?

I give and I take, may be more, I kill and drown and am misery to so many of you,

But remember the time when you really needed to save your limbs and your child,

And how I nourished you? With my cool water filling your parched soul?

Have you ever felt oh Human! Sitting at the top of evolution or whatever you may call it,

How did I feel when I broke away from my mother, and when I abandoned my childhood friends

Atop of those lofty mountains? Have you ever thought how I felt when heavy with mud and guilt

I drowned your civilization, what crossed my mind? Did you ever see myself when you saw me

Finally reaching the sea and jumping with a sigh of relief thinking I end my journey there, for eternity?

And then the sun comes again metamorphosing my cursed soul, lifting me to the same mountain i

Left a century ago? Joy I feel finding myself in my mother’s womb knowing a mighty journey awaits.
