The Voice
Celtic Woman Lyrics

I hear your voice on the wind
I can sense and recognize the sound of your voice amidst the howling of the air.

And I hear you call out my name
I can distinctly hear you say my name, like a beckoning from afar.

"Listen my child," you say to me
You address me affectionately as your child, and tell me to listen carefully to what you are about to say.

"I am the voice of your history
You reveal that you are the embodiment of the accounts of my past, all the events that have shaped my existence.

Be not afraid, come follow me
You assure me to not be afraid, and instead to heed your guidance and example.

Answer my call and I'll set you free"
You beckon to me to acknowledge your plea, and promise to emancipate me from any burdens.

I am the voice in the wind and the pouring rain
You declare your presence to be found in the gusts of the wind and the drenching of the rain.

I am the voice of your hunger and pain
You establish yourself as the embodiment of my yearnings and my sorrows.

I am the voice that always is calling you
You proclaim yourself to be the constant that is tirelessly beckoning me until I heed your call.

I am the voice, I will remain
You unequivocally declare your unwavering presence, unchanging and resolute.

I am the voice in the fields when the summer's gone
You extend your presence to include the desolate end of summer fields.

The dance of the leaves when the autumn winds blow
You are likened to the elegant swaying of leaves as they are blown by autumn winds.

Ne'er do I sleep throughout all the cold winter long
You imply that you are never dormant, not even during the harsh, frigid winter season.

I am the force that in springtime will grow
You reveal yourself to be the energy that drives the growth and the rejuvenation of spring.

I am the voice of the past that will always be
You remind me that you are the resounding echo of past events that will endure indefinitely.

Filled with my sorrow and blood in my fields
You allude to the agony and the spilling of blood that has been present in your existence.

I am the voice of the future
You denote yourself as the representation of the events and possibilities of the future.

Bring me your peace
You implore for me to bring serenity and calmness to your existence.

Bring me your peace and my wounds, they will heal
You assure me that my healing, my replenishment of self, will ultimately contribute to your own rejuvenation.

I am the voice
You affirm your inescapable presence, uncompromising and indomitable.

I am the voice in the past that will always be
You echo your previous line, reminding me that your presence in the past will persist eternally.

I am the voice of the future
You reaffirm your status as the embodiment of the future and what is yet to come.

I am the voice
You conclude with the assertion of your constant, irrefutable existence.
