We were borne in a surge of flame
Borne to know and name
Gathering the light into foreign groves
To bear and lift the flame to worlds unknown
Every element reel and resonate
Seeded with glory
All you've borne over ages bent and stained
Is trembling with glory
We were borne in a surge of flame
Borne to know and name
Gathering the light into foreign groves
To bear and lift the flame to worlds unknown
O the maidens that lean out from heaven's terrace
Laughing and calling
We were raised from the dust of an ancient furnace
And the day is but dawning
We were borne in a surge of flame
Borne to know and name
Gathering the light into foreign groves
To bear and lift the flame to worlds unknown
