Lyrics
Wind to the town is blowing
Wind is blowing towards the town.
Directing the waves to the sand
The wind is guiding the waves to the shore.
The crown on the valley is glowing
A glowing crown is on the valley.
Reflecting the fire on the land
The crown reflects the fire on the land.
Over the shoreline it lingers
The wind lingers over the shoreline.
Hearing the ocean's roar
It hears the roar of the ocean.
Touching the trees with its fingers
Touches the trees with its fingers.
Seeing the shadows of war
Witnesses the shadows of war.
When the stream runs down in the pouring rain
A stream runs down in the pouring rain.
Joining the crest to the sea
It joins the crest to the sea.
They say the gods will unite again
There's a belief that gods will reunite.
How can they not be free
Questioning the constraints on their freedom.
How can they not be free
Reiterating the desire for freedom.
Up to the sky it races
The wind races up to the sky.
Lifting the birds with its wing
Lifts the birds with its wing.
Knowing the valley it graces
Knowing the valley it blesses was once alive.
Was once such a living thing
Reflecting on the past vitality of the valley.
Down to the heart of creation
Descending to the heart of creation.
Feeling the mountain burn
Feeling the mountain burn with a sense of purpose.
It whispers a short invocation
Whispers a short invocation.
May the clouds return
Expresses a hope for the return of clouds.
For the stream runs down in the pouring rain
The stream runs down in the pouring rain.
Joining the crest to the sea
It joins the crest to the sea.
They say the gods will unite again
Belief in the reunion of gods.
How can they not be free
Raising the question of their freedom.
How can they not be free
Emphasizing the longing for freedom.
When the stream runs down in the pouring rain
Repetition of the stream joining the sea.
Joining the crest to the sea
Reiteration of the belief in gods reuniting.
They say the gods will unite again
Repeating the question of freedom.
How can they not be free
Reaffirming the desire for freedom.
How can they not be free
Final emphasis on the longing for freedom.
