The Dark Night Of The Soul Lyrics - A Mediterranean Odyssey - Loreena Mckennitt

Upon a darkened night 

the flame of love was burning in my breast 

And by a lantern bright 

I fled my house while all in quiet rest 

 

Shrouded by the night 

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 

of night more loving than the rising sun 

Oh night that joined the lover 

to the beloved one 

transforming each of them into the other 

 

Upon that misty night 

in secrecy, beyond such mortal sight 

Without a guide or light 

than that which burned so deeply in my heart 

That fire t'was led me on 

and shone more bright than of the midday sun 

To where he waited still 

it was a place where no one else could come

(Chorus) 

 

Within my pounding heart 

which kept itself entirely for him 

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) 

 

I lost myself to him 

and laid my face upon my lover's breast 

And care and grief grew dim 

as in the morning's mist became the light 

There they dimmed amongst the lilies fair 

there they dimmed amongst the lilies fair 

there they dimmed amongst the lilies fair
