"The Hill Burns (River Dee)" lyrics
"The Hill Burns (River Dee)"
(feat. Eamon Doorley, Jim Molyneux, Laura Jane Wilkie & Rachel Newton)
Run the clear burns, run
Clear the burns run, run
From the gaunt heights they tumble
Through the unknown, running home
Run the clear birds, run
Clear the birds run, run
From the dark heights they thunder
Through the unknown, to the sea, running home
So, without sediment
Run the clear burns of my country
Fiercely pure, transparent as light
Gathered into its own unity
Lucent and without colour or green
Like clear deeps of air
[?]
And far below
Where the dark waters of Etchachan are wont to glint
An unfathomable void out of these mountains
Out of the defiant torment of Plutonic rock
Out of fire, terror, blackness and upheaval
Leap the clear burns, living water
Like some pure essence of being
Invisible in itself, seen only by its movement
Run the clear burns, run
Clear the burns run, run
From the gaunt heights they tumble
Through the unknown, running home
From the dark heights they thunder
Through the unknown, to the sea, running home
