A Ritual Of Fire

Fuel the flames! Another year's gone, hard to carry on This winter seems to have no ending In the longest night we still look for the light To drag us all out of the darkness There's a glimpse of hope for a good time to come If the smoke will run towards the East Let's gather around the bonfire tonight Now go and collect branches and twigs Light the big fire, your past torment's set ablaze Fuel the flames The bad fortune will burn to ashes Dance, scream and shout, make your afflictions fade away Yesterday's just a memory Stay awake tonight, the pyre's alight! A cinnamon scent pervades the cold air The cauldron is boiling, the wine's warm The wood has been chopped, everything now is set The ritual is about to happen Right after the dusk ancient rites will take place Just like the ancestors have taught us Can you hear the crackle? Do you feel the warmth? The purification is closer Light the big fire, your past torment's set ablaze Fuel the flames The bad fortune will burn to ashes Dance, scream and shout, make your afflictions fade away Yesterday's just a memory Stay awake tonight, the pyre's alight! Light the big fire, your past torment's set ablaze Fuel the flames The bad fortune will burn to ashes Dance, scream and shout, make your afflictions fade away Yesterday's just a memory Stay awake tonight, the pyre's alight!
