When apples still grow in November And blossoms still bloom from each tree When leaves are still green in December It's then that our land will be free I travelled the hills and the valleys And still trough the sorrows I see Our land that has never known freedom And still only our rivers run free I drink to the death of her manhood Those men who'd rather had died Than to live in the cold chains of bondage To bring back their lives were denied Oh where are you now when we need you What burns were the flames used to be Are you gone like the snows of last winter And still only our rivers run free And still only our rivers run free How sweet is life but we're crying How mellow the wine but it's dry How fragrant the rose but is dying How gentle the wind but it sighs What good is it new when it's aging What joy is in the eyes that can't see When there's sorrow in sunshine and flower And still only our rivers run free I travelled the hills and the valleys And still through her sorrows I see A land that has never known freedom And still only our rivers run free And still only our rivers run free And still only our rivers run free
