Shepherd Moons lyrics

instrumental

... Eurus ...
... Afer Ventus ...

... so the world goes round and round
With all you ever knew -
They say the sky high above
Is Caribbean blue ...

... if every man says all he can,
If every man is true,
Do I believe the sky above
Is Caribbean blue ...

... Boreas ...
... Zephryus ...

... if all you told was turned to gold,
If all you dreamed were new,
Imagine sky high above

My life goes on in endless song
above earth's lamentations,
I hear the real, though far-off hymn
that hails a new creation.

Through all the tumult and the strife
I hear it's music ringing,
It sounds an echo in my soul.
How can I keep from singing?

While though the tempest loudly roars,
I hear the truth, it liveth.
And though the darkness 'round me close,

Amharc, mn¨¢ ag obair l¨¢ 's mall san o¨ªch,
Ceolann siad ar laetha geal, a bh¨ª,
Bealach fada anonn 's anall a ch¨®ich.

Angels, answer me,
are you near if rain should fall?
Am I to believe
you will rise to calm the storm?
For so great a treasure words will never do.
Surely, if this is, promises are mine to give you. (mine to give...)

Here, all too soon the day!
Wish the moon to fall and alter tomorrow.
I should know
heaven has her way
- each one given memories to own.

Angeles, all could be

Book of Days

Ó oíche go hoíche, mo thuras, From night to night, my journey,
An bealach fada romham. The long pilgrimage before me.
Ó lá go lá, mo thuras, From day to day, my journey,
na scéalta na mbeidh a choích. The stories that will be forever.

Translation by Dave Allum ( )
Book of Days (English Version)

One day, one night, one moment

by Enya, Cornet by Steve Sidwell
Each time on my leaving home
I run back to my mother's arms,
one last hold and then it's over.
Watching me, you know I cry,
you wave a kiss to say goodbye,
Feel the sky fall down upon me!
All I am,
a child with promises
All I have
are miles full of promises of home.
If only I could stay with you,
my train moves on, you're gone from view,

(TRANSLATION)

Olorin, who once was...
Sent by the Lords of the West
To guard the lands of the East
Wisest of all Maiar
What drove you to leave
That which you loved?

Mithrandir,Mithrandir O Pilgrim Grey
No more will you wander the green fields of this earth

Your journey has ended in darkness
The bonds cut,the spirit broken
The Flame of Anor has left this World
A great light,has gone out

I dreamt I dwelt in marble halls
with vassels and serfs at my side,
and of all who assembled within those walls
that I was the hope and the pride.
I had riches all too great to count
and a high ancestral name.
But I also dreamt which pleased me most
that you loved me still the same,
that you loved me
you loved me still the same,
that you loved me
you loved me still the same.

When the warmth of the day becomes the night
Who could sleep beneath a strange moonlight?
No guiding star
So far from home
Walked the way o' promise to find but snow
Throughout, the voice of the winds brings nothing more
Than low echoes
So far from home

Even from a child
A wish is not enough
For me, for me the sky may fall
And even from a child
A dream is not enough

Can you hear the night's deep song?
All the shadows say
Telling you when you're asleep,
Tears will fade away
Dream of morning's golden light
When you and I will leave the night ...
And when the moon is high and bright,
Stars will shine on you

Dream of morning's golden light
When you and I will leave the night ...

Make a wish and when you close your eyes
I will come to you

Anron
O môr henion i dhû:
Ely siriar, l sla
Ai! Anron Undomiel

Tiro! Êl eria e môr
I 'lir en l luitha 'uren.
Ai! Anron...

Translation:
I desire

From darkness I understand the night
dreams flow, a star shines
Ah! desire Evenstar

Look! A star rises out of the darkness

May it be an evening star
Shines down upon you
May it be when darkness falls
Your heart will be true
You walk a lonely road
Oh! How far you are from home

Mornië utlië (Quenya: Darkness has come)
Believe and you will find your way
Mornië alantië (Quenya: Darkness has fallen)
A promise lives within you now

May it be the shadow's call
Will fly away

Dawn breaks; there is blue in the sky.
Your face before me though I don't know why.
Thoughts disappearing like tears from the Moon.
Waiting here, as I sit by the stone,
they came before me, those men from the Sun.
Signs from the heavens say I am the one.

Chorus:
Now you're here, I can see your light,
this light that I must follow.
