Original text and translations

{ English text 1  Oh, Shenandoah, I long to hear you, Away you rolling river. Oh Shenandoah, I long to hear you, Away, I'm bound away, 'Cross the wide Missouri. 2  Oh Shenandoah, I love your daughter, Away, you rolling river. For her I'd cross, Your roaming waters, Away, I'm bound away, 'Cross the wide Missouri.

3  'Tis seven years, since last I've seen you, And hear your rolling river. 'Tis seven long years, since last I've seen you, Away, we're bound away, Across the wide Missouri. 4  Oh Shenandoah, I long to see you, And hear your rolling river. Oh Shenandoah, I long to see you, Away, we're bound away, Across the wide Missouri.
