Winter Breeze

See the curtains hanging' in the window.
evening on a Friday night.
A little light-a-shinin' in the window.
Lets me know everything's all right.

Winter breeze makes me feel fine.
Blowin' through the jasmine in my mind.

See the paper layin' on the sidewalk.
music from the house next door.
So I walk on up to the door step.
Through the screen and across the floor.

Winter breeze makes me feel fine.
Blowin' through the jasmine in my mind.

Sweet days of Winter - that jasmine's in bloom.
Jule is dressed up and playing her tune.

When I come home from a hard day's work.
And you're waiting there.
I don't have a care
Not a care in the world.

See the smile waiting in the kitchen.
Food cookin' and the plates for two.
Feel your arms reaching out to hold me.
In the evening when the day is through.

Winter breeze
Makes me feel fine,
Blowin' through the jasmine
In my mind.

Winter breeze yeah
Makes me feel fine,
Blowin' through the jasmine
In my mind.

Winter breeze
Makes me feel fine,
Blowin' through the jasmine
In my mind.

Elfonía - Gigantes III.

Soothing stream
expanding through the air,
far enough for me
to hear the call.
Awaken and restless,
I come to you
with white words.

Through the longest hour
you have withstood the fall.
Wounds open wide,
your heart in your hand.

Days will pass,
cities will fall and rise
feeding from the passion
in your eyes.
What's left then?
Where will you go
if not beside me?

Weaver of your
childhood dreams,
image of your hopes and fears.
You live through me,
we share the answer.

I can save you from this lie,
I can heal your weary arms.
I can save you,
drift into my voice,
it will lead you
far beyond this life.

(Hecaté)

Abney Park - I'm Streched On Your Grave

I am stretched on your grave
And I'll lie there forever
If your hands were in mine
I'd be sure we'd not sever
My apple tree, my brightness,
It's time we were together
For I smell of the Earth
And I'm worn by the weather.

When my family thinks
That I'm safely in my bed
From morn until night
I am stretched at your head
Calling out to the air
With tears both hot and wild
For the loss of a girl
I loved as a child.

Do you remember the night
The night when we were lost
In the shade of the blackthorn
And the chill of the frost?
Oh, and thanks be to Jesus
We did what was right
And your maidenhead still
Is your pillar of light.

I am stretched on your grave
And I'll lie there forever
If your hands were in mine
I'd be sure we'd not sever

Oh, the priests and the friars
They approach me in dread
For I love you still
My wife, and you're dead
I still will be your shelter
Through rain and through storm
And with you in your cold grave
I cannot sleep warm

So I am stretched on your grave
And I'll lie there forever
If your hands were in mine
I'd be sure we'd not sever
My apple tree, my brightness,
It's time we were together
For I smell of the Earth
And I'm worn by the weather.

So I am stretched on your grave
And I'll lie there forever
If your hands were in mine
I'd be sure we'd not sever

Fair Is The Colour...

Fair is the colour of my true love's hair
Her lips are like some roses fair
She has the sweetest smile and the gentlest hands
And I love the ground whereon she stands
I live my love and well she knows
I love the ground whereon she goes
I hope the day will one day come
When she and I'll be as one

I go to the Clyde for to mourn and weep
For satisfied I never can be
I write her letters, just a few short lines
And I suffer death ten thousand times

Fair is the colour of my true loves hair
Her lips are like some roses fair
She has the sweetest smile and the gentlest hands
And I love the ground whereon she stands
I love the ground whereon she stands
I love I love I love the ground whereon she stands

Severance

Severance...
the birds of leaving call to us
yet here we stand
endowed with the fear of flight

Overland...
the winds of change consume the land
while we remain
in the shadow of summers now past

When all the leaves have fallen
and turned to dust
will we remain
entrenched within our ways?

Indifference...
the plague what moves throughout this land
Omen signs
in the shapes of things to come.

Tomorrow's child is the only child
tomorrow's child is the only child



(For The Modern Tristan And Isolde)

Ír Pub hangulat

Megismertettek egy felettébb élvezhető magyar zenekarral, akik hagyományos ír kocsmazenét játszanak. Tegnap volt alkalmam őket élőben is megnézni - mondhatom, a hangulat hatalmas volt - felszabadult, pörgős, barátságos... Rengeteg energiát adott és remélhetőleg kapott is a zenekar - köszönjük a Firkin együttesnek!

Loreena McKennit - All Souls Night

Bonfire 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 till the next sunrise.

Chorus I.

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.

Chorus II.

Bonfires dot the rolling hillsides
Figures dance around and around
To drums that pulse out echoes of darkness
Moving to the pagan sound.

Standing on the bridge that crosses
The river that goes out to the sea
The wind is full of a thousand voices
They pass by the bridge and me.




"Welcome Winter, waning season.
Now with night the New Year comes;
All who honor elder kinfolk,
Dance the deed to Earthly dreams;
Souls respected safeguard the living,
house we'll hold and hallow hearth;
Blessings be on those who bide here,
Blessings be on those who bide here,
And indeed on all the Earth."

- Leigh Ann Hassey

John Riley

Fair young maid all in a garden
Stange young man, passerby
He said, "Fair maid, will you marry me?"
This then, sir, was her reply:

Oh, no, kind sir, I cannot marry thee
For I've a love who sails all on the sea.
He's been gone for seven years
Still no man shall marry me

What if he's in some battle slain
Or if he's drowned in the deep salt sea
What if he's found another love
And he and his love both married be?

Well, if he's in some battle slain
I will die when the moon doth wane
And if he's drowned in the deep salt sea
I'll be true to his memory

And if he's found another love
And he and his love both married be
I'll wish them health and happiness
Where they dwell across the sea

He picked her up all in his arms
Kisses gave her: One, two, three
Said, weep no more, my own true love
I am your long-lost John Riley!
