Testo Skellig - Clannad
Testo della canzone Skellig (Clannad), tratta dall'album Sirius
Like mighty ships that sail the Atlantic foam
The Skellig Isles parade the Kerry coast
It's a strange place with the needle's eye
Where shipwrecks lie
Where the King of the world
Rested for a while
And a place for the pilgrim
A sanctuary of time
Fourteen steps to nowhere
Out of solid stone
Don't lead us to the heavens
Or lead us to the sea
The Vikings came to plunder and destroy
But to this day the holy relics stand
In a blind man's cove, where the wailing woman sigh
And the seagulls cry
Where the king of the world
Rested for a while
And a place for the pilgrim
A sanctuary of time
Fourteen steps to nowhere
Out of solid stone
Don't lead us to the heavens
Or lead us to the sea
A journey to these islands, so rare
The sound of screaming souls that fill the air
A thousand wings against the sky
And gray seals disguised
Where the King of the world
Rested for a while
And a place for the pilgrim
A sanctuary of time
Fourteen steps to nowhere
Out of solid stone
Don't lead us to the heavens
Or lead us to the sea
