Flowing eternally, incessantly shapechanging
 They run since the creation of the World
 From the crystal-clear source of vitality,
 Giving births, giving might.
 Small brook becomes a roaring torrent
 But colors are gradually fading away
 It burns in the devouring fire of Phlegethon
 Rivers, that are slowly passing by
 Never are being the same,
 But always to the same end,
 The predetermined final
 What expects waters falling into the storming seas?
 The destination is obscure, but firm.
