Nattvindens Grat - Skyfires Dance lyrics

Night fell upon the world All there asleep but the rider Birdsong echoed no more Horizon bathed in fire From behind the cloudwall they came Myriad in numbers - the sky filled with flames "Fires, be my guide! Show me there to ride!" And the fires formed a sea Showed him waves, pointed towards east "There is my sign! Drawn on to the sky!" Like the old man hath told That night hath to be the one When nature is asleep The skyfires begin to dance From behind the cloudwall they came Myriad in numbers - the sky filled with flames "Fires, be my guide! Show me there to ride!" And the fires formed a sea Showed him waves, pointed towards east "There is my sign! Drawn on to the sky!" Time pa**ed so fast Morning arised The rides had fallen asleep The first rays from sun Opened his eyes He knew not if he had been dreaming He remembered the night Skyfires dance Something there was so enchanting How could the fires Obey his command Come into his eyes dancing With the mourning he rose Strong was his faith - he would find The answer to his question Again returned the night to his mind From behind the cloudwall they came Myriad in numbers - the sky filled with flames "Fires, be my guide! Show me there to ride!" And the fires formed a sea Showed him waves, pointed towards east "There is my sign! Drawn on to the sky!"
