Storms In Africa (part II) (English)

Though I walk through
warm sands in Africa
winds will grow soon
to storms in Africa.

How far to go
I cannot say.
How many more
will journey this way?

Dark skies fall on
black earth and ivory.
Far from your sun
clouds now close over me.

How far to go
I cannot say.
How many more
will journey this way?

Storms have come!
rains wash the earth away
Dark skies fall down
into another day.
Rains have now come
from storms in Africa
Time will go on
through storms in Africa

Oíche Chiún (Irish Gaelic)

Oíche chiúin, oíche Mhic Dé,
Cách 'na suan dís araon.
Dís is dílse 'faire le spéis
Naíon beag, leanbh ceansa 'gus caomh. 

Críost, 'na chodladh go sámh.
Críost, 'na chodladh go sámh. 

Oíche chiúin, oíche Mhic Dé,
Aoirí ar dtús chuala 'n scéal.
Allelúia aingeal ag glaoch.
Cantain suairc i ngar is i gcéin. 

Críost an Slánaitheoir Féin.
Críost an Slánaitheoir Féin. 

'S Fagain Mo Bhaile (Irish Gaelic) (And I Leave My Home)

Maidin is tús an lae 
Is fágaim mo bhaile
Tá mo chroíse go brón
Is fad ar shiúl m'óige

Oíche is mé liom féin
Spéartha dubh go domhain, a choích
Ag cuimhneamh ar laethanta a bhí
Gan ghá agus gan ghruaim
Eistim leis an ghaoth
Uaigneas mór, go deo, a choích

Deireadh an turas mór
Táim brónach, buartha 's briste
I mo dhiaidh nach mbeidh níos mó
Ach, tá sé i ndán dúinn, a pháistí

Is fada anois an lá
A d'fhág mé mo bhaile
Níl áthas i mo chroí 
Níl ann ach an marbh

Morning and the day's beginning
And I leave my home
My heart is breaking
My youth is long past 

Night and I am alone
Endless deep black skies
Remembering days that were
Without want and without gloom
I listen to the wind
Endless great loneliness forever

The end of the long journey
I am sad, sorrowful, broken
After me there will be no more (of my kind)
But children, it is our destiny

The day is long past
When I left my home
There is no hope in my heart
There is only death

Book of Days (Far & Away) (English)

One day, one night, one moment
My dreams could be tomorrow
One step, one fall, one falter
East or west
Over earth or by ocean
One way to be my journey
This way could be my Book of Days

Ó lá go lá, mo thuras,
An bealach fada romham.
Ó oíche go hoíche, mo thuras,
na scéalta nach mbeidh a choích'.

No day, no night, no moment
Can hold me back from trying
I'll flag, I'll fall, I'll falter
I'll find my day may be Far and Away
Far and Away
Interlude
One day, one night, one moment
With a dream to be leaving 
One step, one fall, one falter
And a new earth across a wide ocean
This way became my journey
This day ends together, Far and Away

This day ends together, Far and Away
Far and Away

As Baile  
Instrumental version of Exile

Morning Glory
Instrumental: Piano and Voices

Oriel Window
Instrumental: Piano

Thoughts from an Oriel Window...
The evening afar...
Persia...
The Isles of Ebony...
Winter gardens...
The singing-ringing tree...

Eclipse
Instrumental: Voices and Synthesizer. This song is "Deireadh an Thuath" ran backwards (literally).

I May Not Awaken (English)

I May Not Awaken 

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
Could be, could be the sky may fall
Could be, could be the night ends all 

No rains could weep as I have wept
To know a simple dream will not be kept
I am a child
So far from home 

One by one the sky falls
I may not awaken...

Only If... (English & French)

When there's a shadow, you follow the sun
When there is love, then you look for the one. 
And for the promises, there is the sky. 
And for the heavens are those who can fly. 

Chorus: 
If you really want to, you can hear me say 
Only if you want to will you find a way. 
If you really want to you can seize the day. 
Only if you want to will you fly away. 

Da da da da, da da da da da. 
da da da da, da da da da da, 
da da da da. 

When there's a journey, you follow a star. 
When there's an ocean, you sail from afar. 
And for the broken heart, there is the sky. 
And for tomorrow are those who can fly. 

Chorus

Da da da da, da da da da da. 
da da da da, da da da da da, 
da da da da. 

Ooh go doe bay mwa. 
Ooh go doe bay mwa. 

Chorus 

Ah! Je voudrai voler comme un oiseau d'aile 
Ah! Je voudrai voler comme un oiseau d'aile, 
d'aile... 

(translation: although the grammar is fairly dodgy, you'd translate this like "Ah, I'll like to fly like a winged bird")

Ooh go doe bay mwa. 
Ooh go doe bay mwa. 

Chorus 

If you really want to you can seize the day. 
Only if you want to will you fly away.

Willows on the Water
Instrumental: Keyboard and Strings

Paint The Sky With Stars (English)

Suddenly before my eyes 
Hues of indigo arise 
With them how my spirit sighs 
Paint the sky with stars 

Only night will ever know 
Why the heavens never show 
All the dreams there are to know 
Paint the sky with stars 

Who has paced the midnight sky? 
So a spirit has to fly 
As the heavens seem so far 
Now who will paint the midnight star? 


Night has brought to those who sleep 
Only dreams they cannot keep 
I have legends in the deep 
Paint the sky with stars 

Who has paced the midnight sky? 
So a spirit has to fly 
As the heavens seem so far 
Now who will paint the midnight star? 

Place a name upon the night 
One to set your heart alight 
And to make the darkness bright 
Paint the sky with stars.

The Promise
Instrumental: Piano

Song of the Sandman (English)

Can you hear the night's deep song
All the shadows say
Telling you when you're asleep
Tears will fade away

Dream of the 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 the 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

Dream of the 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

Midnight Blue
Instrumental: Piano

May It Be (English & Quenya*)

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

Mornie utúlië (darkness has come)
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantië (darkness has fallen)
A promise lives within you now

May it be the shadow's call
Will fly away
May it be you journey on
To light the day
When the night is overcome
You may rise to find the sun

Mornie utúlië (darkness has come)
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantië (darkness has fallen)
A promise lives within you now
A promise lives within you now

Aníron (Theme for Aragorn and Arwen) (Sindarin*)

O môr henion i dhû
Ely siriar, él síla
Ai! Aníron Undomiel

Tiro! Él eria e môr
I 'lîr en êl luitha 'uren
Ai! Aníron...

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

Look! A star rises out of the darkness
The song of the star enchants my heart
Ah! I desire...

* These two songs belong to the Lord of the Rings Soundtrack. Quenya and Sindarin are two fictive elvish languages created by J.R.R. Tolkien for his books.
