The lyrics were adapted from writing from John paul of the Cross. It is meant to be about a love between and man and his god. but can be taken a love between any two... I have loved this song for years... Her writing about the songs are located in the album cover..
Ela não expressa apenas em sua voz e na harpa sentimentos maravilhosos, mas também em seus olhos, por isso ela é minha compositora, cantora e instrumentista preferida.
Would like it more if she didn't look so damn creepy. how superficial. Beautiful song, I love her work. She sings with a passion rarely seen in our world. Keep singing.
I agree! Loreena is one of the few who can translate any literature whether it's religous in nature or if it's poetry into a new masterpeice like no other! :D

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

She is very expressive in her eyes too, because of this, she is my favourite composer, singer and instrumentist! Brazil needs Loreena!!

@Rich*9, Her other worldly appearance is part of her creativity .. helps her to come from a deeper space within .. that's what we all love her for.
So "damn creepy" thing is ok. No ?

This song was originally a poem by St. John of The Cross in 16th century Spain. Loreena McKennit's portrayal of it really magnifies its beauty...
