Click on (more info) to see the English translation and the Loxian lyrics.

English translation:

Our words go beyond the moon.
Our words go into the shadows.
The river sings the endlessness.
We write of our journey through night.
We write in our aloneness.
We want to know the shape of eternity.

Who knows the way it is?
Who knows what time will not tell us?

Mountains, solitude and the moon
until the journey's end?
The river holds the lost road of the sky;
the shape of eternity?

Who knows the way it is?
Who knows what time will not tell us?

Where is the beginning?
Where is the end?
Why did we fall into days?
Why are we calling out into the endlessness?

Who knows the way it is?
Who knows what time will not tell us?

Is there a Video of Enya actually singing this song?

[jorgefc]

@u12kno unfortunately no.

[DigitalDream242]

listening to enya makes me wish I could fly. Keeps the spirit alive and the soul young.

[Amythestjewel09]

I don't know why, but listening to this song and watching the music video is giving me chills. She has such an amazing voice

[MrTaipenguin]

@TheHistorytiger Actually she is singing in Loxian, which a fictionaly language made for Enya to sing in....

[TheHistorytiger]

@Aeion2512 It's in an old Celtic language..

[Redalligatorr]

Моя любимая мелодия! Респект авторам и выложившим

[Aeion2512]

The song feels wonderful! I'm still wondering if the lyrics are in a living language? Maybe I'm a little ignorant here, sorry... Or is it movie related language (like Elvish)?

[DougDreamCatcher]

No matter what anyone's nationality or musical preferences, it's very hard NOT to fall in love with Enya's beautiful music. I'm in Heaven each time I hear her!

[johnson11b]
