Oran Lyrics

Runrig Oran

Breath of my life,
Breath of my existence
Breath of my life
Proclaiming in my soul,
Uplifting my heart
Uplifting my heart

I am standing before you
Without fear or desire
I am standing before you
The concerns of the morning will come
When the sun rises
When the sun rises

Song, sacred, eternal
Lift on high the voice of the people
Song, I am reconciled
Let it rise up from the moorlands

The psalm is like a flame,
Illuminating all around
The psalm is like a flame
My lips opened
When the day began
When the day began

Song, sacred, eternal
Lift on high the voice of the people
Song, I am reconciled
Let it rise up from the moorlands

Sing, Sing, Sing
A new song, a song of the dust

Spoken Passage: (unofficial translation)
Looking out the window of morning
From the evening to the door of night
I asked the question
And the answer was in the water of dawn
[of the lake?]
It was the earth
