Courtyard Lullaby Lyrics - The Visit - Loreena Mckennitt

Werein the deep night sky 

The stars lie in its embrace 

The courtyard still in its sleep 

And peace comes over your face 

'Come to me' it sings 

'Hear the pulse of the land 

The oceans rhythms pull 

To hold your heart in its hand' 

And when the wind draws strong 

Across the cypress trees 

The Nightbirds cease their songs 

So gathers memories.

Last night you spoke of a dream 

Where forests stretched to the east 

And each bird sang its song 

A Unicorn joined in the feast 

And in a corner stood 

A pomegranate tree 

With wild flowers there 

No mortal eye could see 

Yet still some mystery befalls 

Sure as the cock crows at morn 

The world in stillness keeps 

The secret of babes to be born 

Photos 

I heard an old voice say 

'Don't go far from the land 

The seasons have their way 

No mortals can understand.'
