Miriam Stockley - A Finnish Summer Night - Finlandia lyrics

Twin brides of light hold back the night so endless Sun kissed, the moon in deepese scarlet dream I find no sleep when beams this summer fool on high For gaze I must upon its radiant j**el I find no peace, no rest to still awareness Sweet rays of hope, calm now my searching soul Strangest of light, which burns as day is dying Wash o'er my sould that I may sleep secure Most gentle nurse, long bringer of tranqulity Now bathes my eyes in nature's purest glow And would these rays endure for all abiding Still let them shine for all the world to see My sun, my moon, my sisters of invention Whose beads of light fall soft upon the mist Take up thy brush upon this northern canvas Come paint for me a Finnish summer night Take up thy brush upon this northern canvas Fashion for me a Finnish summer night
