The Dionysian Dancers Lyrics

Transit Poetry The Dionysian Dancers

At night we dance as bleary shapes
Lost to the rhythm of the earth
From weary limbs the soul escapes
Beyond the frames of death and birth

Following the shaman's dance
Like vessels in a fiery sea
On undulating radiance
Embraced by loving flames are we

So we dance into the embers
While impressions overwhelm
So we dance, ashes remembers
Into ecstatic, greater realms

In golden sparks the spirit gleams
As sacred dancers loose control
Intoxication, it redeems…
When love devours us as a whole

A trip into divinity
Across the dream world's fields of bloom
A last surge of infinity
As we disband in fire's fume

And we promised once not to weep
On a journey for spirit and man
Full of sadness and joy we all creep
Into the origin as one away again…
