Water Fire And Smoke - 贵族乐团
It's been a long journey to come to this place
I've traveled in time and I've traveled in space
And I've traveled in circles till I've come face to face
With the water fire and smoke
I've pondered and worried I've tightened the rope;
I've feasted on sorrow and starved out my hope
Now I come like a lover my heart in my throat:
Give me water fire and smoke
Water for cleansing my eyes and my ears —
Fire the transformer of sorrows and fears —
Smoke for the ancestors drawing them near
With the water fire and smoke
So run from the churchyard the Word and the cross;
Run to the forest to the rivers and the rocks
You will find a green altar deep in the moss:
You'll find water fire and smoke
Ancient the wisdom of rocks trees and wind;
Ancient the rites of the green sacrament
Long before judgement atonement and sin
There was water fire and smoke
I lay down my burden the weight of my years
Gods I have worshipped and causes held dear
And who will I be when they all disappear
Into water fire and smoke
I've knelt in the ashes In peace may I rise
Empty of knowing and full of surprise
Clothed all in silence a child baptised
Into water fire and smoke
So run from the churchyard the Word and the cross;
Run to the forest to the rivers and the rocks
You will find a green altar deep in the moss:
You'll find water fire and smoke
