Clannad - Coinleach Glas an Fhómhair (English Version)

Singer : Chyi Yu ,
Song : Senses In Flight

There're times in life, when senses they fly
from below to up high
where your feelings cannot deny
no figures, no names, no fences, no frames
like the incense in the air
with no purpose, here or there

so morals retreat and the senses entreat
from the dark they are lit
with the fire you can't forbid
no future to relate, just ventures await
hold your breath, stay awake
gladly take come what may

maybe you're scared by the flames of red
but a life without risk differs little from death
maybe it's fair for the roses to flare
as the fragrance fills the air
let your soul confess

arrrrr .... arrrrr .... arrrrr ... arrrr

so morals retreat and the senses entreat
from the dark they are lit
with the fire you can't forbid
no future to relate, just ventures await
hold your breath, stay awake
gladly take come what may

the lyrics are wrong... as they have nothing to do with the original. at least put in the comments, that this chinese lady wrote her own words to the music... not that it´s the english version of the song! oh, that she "borrowed" the music and made it her own... without giving any credit. so typical!

@lilith2703 I didn't make any statement anywhere to indicate that the English lyric is a direct translation from Clannad's lyric. It is just a English version which is sung in English and has nothing to do with the Original lyric sung by Clannad.

@winterw00d so the title of your video "Clannad - Coinleach Glas an Fhómhair (English Version)" isn´t exactly that? - a statement that this is the Engish Version of the song titled "Coinleach Glas an Fhómhair"? why isn´t the title of your video "Chyi Yu - Senses In Flight" (which would also indicate what the video ACTUALLY is)... just a thought...

[winterw00d]

@lilith2703 The title as shown is part of the " tactic " to attract the attention of the westerners to view / listen to this song. If i put "Chyi Yu - Senses In Flight " as the title. No one (especially westerners) bothers to view / listen to the song.

Absolutely beautiful! I love this song. Thanks for posting it!

you are welcome

It is beautiful, but these lyrics definitely depart from the translation. As with all questions of this kind, there is one correct ruling. If Clannadtheir /music company or owner of the rights to these lyrics gave their permission for their tune to be used for these lyrics, then such usage is legal. If they did not, Clannad/music company/owner can institute a lawsuit.

@incubus442 I discovered that the lyrics that are used in this version are not correct.  I must saw that it is a wonderful version, but I wish that she could have used the real lyrics. For those who would like to see the real lyrics, go to...

All I can say is WOW! This has got to be the most beautiful song that I have ever heard in my life! I have never heard the English version of it before and I am totally blown away. Thank you so much for posting it!

Nice one Winterwood for the english version. My favourite track taken over from the Robin Hood track.
