Water, Fire And Smoke - 贵族乐团 (Noble Band)

It's been a long journey to come to this place

I've traveled in time and I've traveled in space

And I've traveled in circles till I've come face to face

With the water fire and smoke

I've pondered and worried I've tightened the rope;

I've feasted on sorrow and starved out my hope

Now I come like a lover my heart in my throat:

Give me water fire and smoke

Water for cleansing my eyes and my ears —

Fire the transformer of sorrows and fears —

Smoke for the ancestors drawing them near

With the water fire and smoke

So run from the churchyard the Word and the cross;

Run to the forest to the rivers and the rocks

You will find a green altar deep in the moss:

You'll find water fire and smoke

Ancient the wisdom of rocks trees and wind;

Ancient the rites of the green sacrament

Long before judgement atonement and sin

There was water fire and smoke

I lay down my burden the weight of my years

Gods I have worshipped and causes held dear

And who will I be when they all disappear

Into water fire and smoke

I've knelt in the ashes In peace may I rise

Empty of knowing and full of surprise

Clothed all in silence a child baptised

Into water fire and smoke

So run from the churchyard the Word and the cross;

Run to the forest to the rivers and the rocks

You will find a green altar deep in the moss:

You'll find water fire and smoke
