ēriks ešenvalds - northern lights lyrics

cik naksnīnas pret ziemeli redzēj’ kāvus karojam
ē, redzēj’ kāvus karojam;
karo kāvi pie debesu, vedīs karus mūs’ zemē;
ē, vedīs karus mūs’ zemē

(how many nights against the north wind
i saw the northern lights fighting;
fighting in the sky, the northern lights
bring wars to our land.)

it was night, and i had gone on deck several times
iceberg was silent; i too was silent
it was true dark and cold
at nine o’clock i was below in my cabin
when the captain hailed me with the words:
“come above, hall, at once! the world is on fire!”
i knew his meaning, and, quick as thought
i rushed to the companion stairs
in a moment i reached the deck
and as the cabin door swung open
a dazzling light, overpow’ring light burst upon my startled senses!
oh, the whole sky was one glowing m-ss of colored flames, so mighty, so brave!
like a pathway of light the northern lights seemed to draw us into the sky
yes, it was harp-music, wild storming in the darkness;
the strings trembled and sparkled in the glow of the flames
like a shower of fiery darts
a fiery crown of auroral light cast a warm glow across the arctic ice
again at times it was like softly playing, gently rocking silvery waves
on which dreams travel into unknown worlds
