May it be

Lyrics by Roma Ryan
[top]
May it be an evening star
shines down upon you
May it be when darkness falls
your heart will be true
You walk a lonely road
Oh! how far you are from home 

Mornie utulie      (darkness has come)
Believe and you will find your way
mornie alantie     (darkness has fallen)
A promise lives within you now

May it be the shadows call
will fly away
May it be you journey on
to light the day
When the night is overcome
you may rise to find the sun

mornie utulie   (darkness has come)
Believe and you will find your way
mornie alantie     (darkness has fallen)
A promise lives within you now 

A promise lives within you now

Aniron

Lyrics by Roma Ryan
[top]
E mor henion i dhu:
Ely siriar, el sila.
Ai! Aniron Undomiel.

Tiriel arad ‘ala mor
Minnon i dhu- sad oltha.
Ai! Aniron Edhelharn.

Alae! Ir el od elin!
I ‘lir uin el luitha guren.
Ai! Aniron Undomiel.

I lacha en naur e-chun
Sila, eria, bronia.
Ai! Aniron Edhelharn

Out of darkness I understand the night:
Dreams flow, a star shines.
Ah! I desire Evenstar.

Having watched the day grow dark
I go into night - a place to dream.
Ah! I desire Elfstone.

Behold!  The star of stars!
The song of the star enchants my heart.
Ah! I desire Evenstar.

The flame of the fire of the heart
Shines, rises, endures.
Ah! I desire Elfstone.

Christmas secrets

Lyrics by Roma Ryan
[top]
Underneath a winter sky
a distant train sings out the miles.                               
So I imagine, it may be,
that every mile brings you to me.
A promise made may still come true,
so I am waiting here for you,
if you don’t come, what will I do?
Who shall I tell my secrets to?

Christmas bells ring out their chimes,
I hear them echo through the miles,
and moonlight shines upon the road
and trembles on the fallen snow
I look into the midnight blue
So many stars I never knew.
If you don’t come, what will I do?
Who shall I tell my secrets to?

I look into the midnight blue
So many stars I never knew.
If you don’t come, what will I do?
Who shall I tell my secrets to?

The magic of the night

Lyrics by Roma Ryan
[top]
When the stars are in the skies
make a wish then close your eyes.
Are you dreaming
angels singing?
Everything is right.
It’s the magic of the night!

Far horizons made of snow
bring the hopes each child will know.
Someone’s dreaming
bells are ringing
and the world is white. 
It’s the magic of the night!

High up in the sky
can you see a shining light?
Could it be that we can see
an angel who is flying, flying....

Can an angel lose their way?
Who of us on earth can say?
Someone’s dreaming                                                                           
angels singing
everything is right.
It’s the magic of the night!

High up in the sky
can you see a shining light?
Could it be that we can see
an angel who is flying, flying....

When the stars are in the skies
make a wish then close your eyes.
Are you dreaming
bells are ringing?
Angels are in flight?
It’s the magic of the night!

Angels are in flight.
It’s the magic of the night.

Song of the Sandman

Lyrics by Roma Ryan
[top]
Can you hear in night's deep song
all the shadows say
telling you when you're asleep
tears will fade away

Dream of morning's golden light                 
when you and I will leave the night

And when the moon is high and bright                       
stars will shine on you

Dream of morning's golden light
when you and I will leave the night

Make a wish and when you close your eyes
I will come to you

Dream of morning's golden light
when you and I will leave the night

Make a wish and when you close your eyes
I will come to you

I may not awaken

Lyrics by Roma Ryan
[top]
When the warmth of the day becomes the night
who could sleep beneath a strange moonlight?
No guiding star.
So far from home.

Walked the way of promise to find but snow.
Throughout, the voice of the winds brings nothing more
than low echoes,
so far from home.

Even from a child
a wish is not enough.
For me,
for me
the sky may fall,
and even from a child
a dream is not enough,
could be,
could be
the sky may fall,
could be,
could be
the night ends all.

No rains could weep as I have wept
to know a simple dream will not be kept.
I am a child
so far from home.

One by one the sky falls
(as with the night, sleep ends all.)
I may not awaken.

O Miraculum

[top]
o Semel canebamus 
Fabulam magnae diei,
lunae lucem in aqua,
litora,  stellam,  caelum.
Vela dare.
(o)Miraculum.
Vela dare.  Vero.
Semel salum
sub Hesperus.
Ita vela dedimus.

In hodierna die       
canimus albae nivis,                                                                            
lunae lucem in gelu,                                                                                         
lacrima et pluvia.
Vela dare.
(o)Miraculum.
Vela dare.  Vero.
Viatores
ecce caelum,
oceanus et terra!

Vela dare.
(o)Miraculum.
Vela dare.  Vero.
Ite! Ite!
Mare, mare
sub vespertina stella

Vela dare.
(o)Miraculum.
Vela dare.  Vero.
Et iam annus 
vicesimus!
Tempus est somnium!

Vela dare.
(o)Miraculum.
Vela dare.  Vero.
Et fortasse
crastinus deis
vela dabimus. Vela.   
Vela dabimus. Vela. 
Vela dabimus. Vela.
