Enya - Marble Halls

Lyrics :
I dreamt I dwelt in marble halls
with vassals and serfs at my side,
and of all who assembled within those walls
that I was the hope and the pride.
I had riches all too great to count
and a high ancestral name.
But I also dreamt which pleased me most
that you loved me still the same,
that you loved me
you loved me still the same,
that you loved me
you loved me still the same.
I dreamt that suitors sought my hand,
that knights upon bended knee
and with vows no maidens heart could withstand,
they pledged their faith to me.
And I dreamt that one of that noble host
came forth my hand to claim.
But I also dreamt which charmed me most
that you loved me still the same
that you loved me
you loved me still the same,
that you loved me
you loved me still the same.

Enya normally composes all her own songs.

This however is a song from the Irish opera the bohemian girl by Balfe.

I do believe Enyas version is best.However the super Jessy Norman belts out a great version also.This video is so tasteful it should have an award for quality and editing.Top marks

Do you have any other work your admirers can view?

@555worldwide This is my favorite too. Jessye Norman is an impressive singer, there's no better Soprano to me on voice alone. But she's not what this song needs, Its a delicate, magical aria, Enya nails it by providing a brave sweetness and dreamy ambiance that I haven't seen anyone surpass. Norman has a luxurious, commanding sound, and forever reaching singing style, I think she makes it into something its not, you miss the love because she's too mighty for it, though its good.
