Pilgrim

I was getting the music ready for tomorrow's Mosaic service today because tomorrow I will be attending a moonlodge service (more on that later hopefully), and this song just spoke words of wisdom to me.

I know that Enya has been described as cheesy (and she can be), but her art connects me to my spirit and breathes wisdom to my heart.

I give you Enya's song Pilgrim.

The lyrics:
Pilgrim, how you journey
On the road you chose
To find out why the winds die
And where the stories go.

All days come from one day
That much you must know,
You cannot change what's over
But only where you go.

One way leads to diamonds,
One way leads to gold,
Another leads you only
To everything you're told.

In your heart you wonder
Which of these is true;
The road that leads to nowhere,
The road that leads to you.

Will you find the answer
In all you say and do?
Will you find the answer
In you?

Each heart is a pilgrim,
Each one wants to know
The reason why the winds die
And where the stories go.

Pilgrim, in your journey
You may travel far,
For pilgrim it's a long way
To find out who you are...

Pilgrim, it's a long way
To find out who you are...

Pilgrim, it's a long way
To find out who you are...
I hope your journey take you to a beautiful place.

Brilliant. I get chills remembering this movie - and the words to this song are just perfect. I'm not sure when Enya crossed the line in my mind, I used to love her, and this makes me remember why.

PS, meant to say also that I'd love to read your write up on the film when you get to it.
