Loreena Mckennitt - The Dark Night Of The Soul
Upon A Darkened Night
The Flame Of Love Was Burning In My Breast
And By A Lantern Bright
Shrouded By The Night
I Fled My House While All In Quiet Rest
And By The Secret Stair I Quickly Fled
The Veil Concealed My Eyes
While All Within Lay Quiet As The Dead
Chorus
Oh Night Thou Was My Guide
To The Beloved One
Of Night More Loving Than The Rising Sun
Oh Night That Joined The Lover
Transforming Each Of Them Into The Other
Upon That Misty Night
In Secrecy, Beyond Such Mortal Sight
Than That Which Burned So Deeply In My Heart
Without A Guide Or Light
That Fire T'was Led Me On
And Shone More Bright Than Of The Midday Sun
It Was A Place Where No One Else Could Come
To Where He Waited Still
Chorus
Which Kept Itself Entirely For Him
Within My Pounding Heart
He Fell Into His Sleep
Beneath The Cedars All My Love I Gave
From O'er The Fortress Walls
The Wind Would His Hair Against His Brow
And With Its Smoothest Hand
Caressed My Every Sense It Would Allow
Chorus
And Laid My Face Upon My Lover's Breast
I Lost Myself To Him
As In The Morning's Mist Became The Light
And Care And Grief Grew Dim
There They Dimmed Amongst The Lilies Fair
There They Dimmed Amongst The Lilies Fairthere They Dimmed Amongst The Lilies Fair
