OMG it's SO GORGEOUS! I can't wait to hear the rest of the album!
Does anyone have the lyrics?
I totally agree! It's very different from what I was expecting but it's so good at the same time!
Hoping this helps lyric-wise by the way (I'm still trying to snuff out who sings what though, so please do excuse any errors member-wise). I don't really know what the choir's singing, but I can assume that it's probably some Latin or Irish lyrics.
[Muirgen:]One morning early, I walked forth
By the margin of Lough Leane
[Chloë:]The sunshine dressed the trees in green
And summer bloomed again
[Megan:]I left the town, and wandered on
Through fields all green and gay
[Muirgen:]And whom should I meet but a colleen sweet
At the dawning of the day?
[Megan:]No cap or cloak this maiden wore
Her neck and feet were bare
[Chloë:]Down to the grass in ringlets fell
Her glossy golden hair
[Megan:]A milking pail was in her hand
She was lovely, young and gay
[Muirgen:]She wore the palm from Venus bright
By the dawning of the day
(fiddle solo)[Chloë:]On a mossy bank, I sat me down
With the maiden by my side
[Megan:]With gentle words, he courted her
And asked her to be his bride
[Muirgen:]She said, "Young man, don't bring me blame"
And swiftly turned away
And the morning light was shining bright
[All:]At the dawning of the day
