if you listen, you'd hear it call, wailare

there is a river called the river of no return

sometimes it's peaceful and sometimes wild and free

love is a traveler, on the river of no return

swept on forever, to be lost in the stormy sea

wailare, i can hear the river call

no return, no return, no return, no return, wailare.

i can hear my lover call, come to me

i lost my love on the river

and forever my heart will yearn

gone, gone forever

down the river of no return

wailare, wailare, she'll never return to me

无归河

玛丽莲·梦露 演唱

如果你聆听，你会听见这条河在呼唤，威勒利

有一条河叫做无归河

它有时安详平稳，有时狂野奔放

在无归河上，爱情就像一名游者

被大浪卷走，消失得无影无踪

我听见河水呼唤着，威勒利

不回来，不回来，不回来，不回来了，威勒利

我听见我的爱人在呼唤，到我身边来吧

在河中，我失去了我的爱人

我的心永远思念她

往事成空，大江东去

威勒利，威勒利，她再也不会回到我身边了。
