Time flows like a river
Carving its own path
Each day can deliver
Peace, joy, doom or wrath.
Past is gone forever
There's no turning back
On its tough endeavour
Time stays on its track.
It's a long and arduous trip
In which we are all involved
Passengers on a large ship
Full of problems to be solved.
Sometimes there are gruelling hours
Full of pain, hardships and fright
When we gather all our powers
To maintain the boat's course right.
Once the obstacles removed
And the river's calm and cool
Our lives may be improved
Yet we're still slaves of time's rule!
