Rivers of Living Water`

Yes, I know I have the rivers of the living waters
`Can swear it streams and flows and freely flutters
It bubbles and doubles the fountain of my tender breast
Undulating and refining my brains, my chest on the crest
Lo! When it should travel in the pomp of its wealth and feathers
My rivers dwindles, stutters and slowly it festers
At its spillage, it drizzles and faints at the lobby’s rest
My rivers, my vitals, my kismet and my best

Behold the land be dry and the grass alters its beauty
should men, animals and plants taste, in my bounty
Who can live and grow fertile and generously nourish'
But someday- this I know- the land shall live to flourish
And sprout the bounty it own`st to blossom and prosper
When men will drink full from the rivers of living water`
