Enya - Afer Ventus (Original Instrumental)

Описание: Vocals:    • Enya - Afer Ventus (Vocals only/Acapella)  

"The moment experienced when everything in life suddenly makes sense – when everything fits into place and we know why – is a rare moment, but it does happen. If we are lucky enough we can bathe in the brevity of that moment for it passes as quickly as it arrives. Like Joyce’s ‘Epiphanies’ they can sometimes seem trivial, but are always crucial and revealing moments in our lives, delicate and fleeting.
In ‘Afer Ventus’ it is those moments of pure enlightenment which are described".
Roma Ryan. Shepherd Moons music book, 1991

Lyrics {latin}

Mare Nubium, Umbriel (suus cuique mos, suum cuique)
Mare Imbrium, Ariel (meus mihi, suus cuique carus)
Et itur ad astra (memento, terrigena)
Et itur ad astra (memento, vita brevis)
Mare undarum, Io, vela (meus mihi, suus cuique carus)

Mirabile dictu, mirabilia (suus cuique mos, suum cuique)
Mirabile visu, mirabilia (meus mihi, suus cuique carus)
Et itur ad astra (memento, terrigena)
Et itur ad astra (memento, vita brevis)
Sempervirent, Rosetum (meus mihi, suus cuique carus)

Afer ventus, Zephyrus (suus cuique mos, suum cuique)
Volturnus, Africus (meus mihi, suus cuique carus)
Et itur ad astra (memento, terrigena)
Et itur ad astra (memento, vita brevis)
Etesiarum, Eurus (meus mihi, suus cuique carus)
