This Is Our Night

🌳🏛️🔮🏦🔮🏛️🌳
Upon The Hill That Houses Their Tomb
Their Spirits Stand In A Holy Light
We See Them High Above The Cwm
They're Our Ancestors, Caring And Wise
🔮🏦🔮
Our Ancestors Return, This Is Our Night
They Have Come Back To Give Our Blessing
'Neath The Blue Leaved Tree, They Shine Their Light
On This Special Night, They Chant And Sing
🔮🏦🔮
We See The Doorway Stones Of The Stones
Spiral Spell From Our Ancestor's Light
They Cast Their Magic, In Sacred Tones
They Are Here For Us, This Is Our Night
🔮🏦🔮
They'll Be Here Again, They Were Before
This is The Night Of Our Ancestors
