luka bloom - the joy of living lyrics

farewell you northern hills, you mountains all goodbye
moorlands and stony ridges, crags and peaks goodbye
glyder fach farewell, cul beag, sca fell, cloud-bearing suilven
sun warmed rocks and the cold of bleaklow’s frozen sea
the snow and the wind and the rain of hills and mountains
days in the sun and the tempered wind and the air like wine
and you drink and you drink till you’re drunk on the joy of living
farewell to you my love, my time is almost done
lie in my arms once more until the darkness comes
you filled all my days, held the night at bay, dearest companion
years p-ss by and they’re gone with the speed of birds in flight
our lives like the verse of a song heard in the mountains
give me your hand and love and join your voice with mine
and we’ll sing of the hurt and the pain and the joy of living
farewell to you my chicks, soon you must fly alone
flesh of my flesh, my future life, bone of my bone
may your wings be strong, may your days be long, safe be your journey
each of you bears inside of you the gift of love
may it bring you light and warmth and the pleasure of giving
eagerly savour each new day and the taste of its mouth
never lose sight of the thrill and the joy of living
take me to some high place of heather, rock and ling
scatter my dust and ashes, feed me to the wind
so that i may be part of all you see, the air you are breathing
i’ll be part of the curlew’s cry and the soaring hawk
the blue milkwort and the sundew hung with diamonds
i’ll be riding the gentle breeze as it blows through your hair
reminding you how we shared in the joy of living
