The River is Flowing .. Native American Folk Song .. A video presentation

#MukhtarLyallpuri
(VIDEO, LYRICS) A very melodious and over whelming Native American Indian folk song portraying a complete Life Cycle. This serene song puts the listener in a tranquil and meditative mood. It's a traditional native American song which gives thanks to Mother Earth for the river of life, and for the flow of life in our emotional heart and soul.

Thanks to Mr.Klause Ehlers for his nice comments, and has written the following valuable information

"The River Is Flowing" was a chant written in the 1970s by Sun Bear, a member
of the Chippewa Tribe. He was born in the White Earth Reservation in the North
of the United States on 31 August 1926 and died on 19 June 1992 at the age of
66 in Spokane, Washington. - Additional verses were added by E. Barrie Kavash
in her 2005 novel "Sacred Cave" which is set in North America's prehistoric southeast.

Beginning as small stream, the river begins its journey from the hills, where water is so clean, cold and pure. Joined by other tributaries and keeps growing in size. Flowing over spillways, and getting calmer, keeps on flowing through the plains and ultimately ends journey into sea as sun goes below the horizon. It is the cycle of life.

The population explosion and pollution has degraded our environment. The India and Pakistan has many beautiful rivers originating from Himalayas. The global warming is posing a continuous threat to the glaciers receding at alarming speed.

Rivers are our source of Life. We must work together to keep them clean and protect them.

The Song goes like this:

The River is flowing
Flowing and growing
The River is flowing
Back to the Sea
Mother Earth carry me
A Child I will always be
Mother Earth carry me
Back to the Sea
