all souls night

bonfires dot the rolling hillsides,
figures dance around and around,
to drums that pulse out echoes of darkness,
moving to the pagan sound.

somewhere in a hidden memory,
images float before my eyes,
of fragrant nights of straw and of bonfires,
and dancing to the next sunrise.

i can see the lights in the distance,
trembling in the dark cloak of night,
candles and lanterns are dancing, dancing
a waltz on all souls night.

figures of cornstalks bend in the shadows,
held up tall as the flames leap high,
the green knight holds the holly bush,
to mark where the old year passes by.

i can see the lights in the distance,
trembling in the dark cloak of night,
candles and lanterns are dancing, dancing
a waltz on all souls night.

bonfires dot the rolling hillsides,
figures dance around and around,
to drums that pulse out echoes of darkness,
and moving to the pagan sound.

standing on the bridge that crosses
the river that goes out to sea,

the wind is full of a thousand voices,
they pass by the bridge and me.

i can see the lights in the distance,
trembling in the dark cloak of night,
candles and lanterns are dancing, dancing
a waltz on all souls night.

loreena mckennitt ın en sevilen şarkılarından biri..

aslında benim için de her şey bu şarkıyla başlamıştı.loorena'yı tablet olarak alırdım vakt-i zamanında artık direk kana veriyorum..şarkı neşeli mi hüzünlü mü? bir türlü ayrımına varılamayacak kadar güzel..

birileri pink floydiçin demiş ..ben de misilleme yapayım;

şarkı güzel..ama loreena zaten güzeldi..
