Lyrics

作曲 : Henri Peltola/Mertsi Helppi/Olli Simola
作词 : Henri Peltola
It’s so cold in here, in this chamber
Where my oppressed soul is destined to dwell
Too narrow to abide
This peel of mine is for me as well
In my dreams only
Have I seen myself as free
From the chains of space and time
In the light of infinity
And every time I see the colors of that world
My soul does cry
For in me they awaken
A yearning of the deepest kind
All the strife within me and my life
Will crumble me
The absence of a warming love
Brings cruel anxiety
Oh, when it all will be done
And that one sweet moment will come
Yearning will be wiped off my face
As I leave behind my carnal cage
Down in life true joy is denied
In cold flesh the spirit confined
Drowning in lust for lures that blind
Eyes so bright, minds so sublime
Yet to roam in this trial of pain
Is purposed to raise us, hence not in vain
The chained are just too frail to grasp
The ordeals as a gift in their hands
Oh, when I’ll finally see
The bliss of the world that awaits for me
When I tread to that celestial place
I have left behind my carnal cage
