Enya - The Loxian Gate Lyrics






Through the gates of night
There is wisdom is waiting to be found…

That first place of night
Was an island in the colour of stars
Spring;
Green grew and the flowers blossomed

…a lost time, for in the distance…

Summer;
The sun and the sand
Autumn;
The shape of yellow leaves falling

…a lost time, far in the distance…

Winter;
The sky sang snow
Written into the night;
A world of stars

…a lost time, for in the distance…

Now, is the season of water;
The island, the cities, the darkness
Through time this became our world
But our quest is not yet over

Now, is the season of the moon;
Soft breezes whispering
Night and day
But our quest is not yet over

  1. A.... B....

    Classic Enya 😊 Best song on the album, in my opinion.

    Welcome to the sound of the ocean.

  2. J.... M....

    Tell me a better trio than Enya, Nicky, and Roma. I'll wait. : )

    J.... M....

    How she managed to not cross professional paths with Mike Oldfield is beyond me.

    J.... M....

    @jsm666 Very good point! They still might. Oldfield himself is half-Irish as well.

  3. T.... G....

    Hi enya it's Theresa here how are you doing today

  4. K.... S....

    This is my absolutely favorite song of her.
    Soooooo nice and I give 5 stars for that!!!

  5. E.... S....

    ❤️🌟

  6. q.... ....

    This song would have been perfect for ending the album. It feels like a song at the end of an awesome movie where the audience is crying in joy.

  7. q.... ....

    This album is very much on par with her best albums. Amarantine was just a hiccup. She is back.

    q.... ....

    She should have got a Grammy for DSI instead!

  8. l.... d....

    I listen to this at home and I travel to another world. Thank you, Enya

  9. J.... D....

    Who can play Enya songs more than 10 times a day like me?

    J.... D....

    John Daniel

    Meeeeeeeeeeeeee.

    J.... D....

    @ John Daniel You're easy. I lost you at eleven....lol

  10. J.... J....

    If there is a Heaven this is what you hear on the journey up.

  11. S.... A....

    Very good

  12. T.... G....

    Enya it's Theresa here I thought that you really loved me as your special friend because I loved you so much what am I supposed to do now without not having you near me I do miss you.

    T.... G....

    So what is Enya? Your friend or your mom?

    T.... G....

    @Soy La Soñadora my mom

    T.... G....

    @Theresa Griffiths wat

    T.... G....

    Theresa she is not your mom. Enya has no kids of her own, not even adopted ones. You are too old to be adopted anyway. You have to have papers signed for it to be legal adoption.

  13. T.... G....

    Love your music it reminds me of you enya being right next to me in the flat with me right now.

  14. E.... R....

    One of the most beautiful songs of Enya, as the 120 others... Excellent!

    E.... R....

    Corretíssimo .!!!!! .

  15. J.... M....

    I love It!

  16. R.... M....

    Imagine you're walking along a forest trail miles from anywhere. Suddenly the air turns beautifully warm and you hear THIS music from ahead.....

    R.... M....

    I can imagine that!

  17. W.... ....

    Astonishing <3

  18. m.... g....

    es la música mas bella te amo enya

  19. J.... G....

    Better if it was mixed better.

    J.... G....

    Jim Gamble BULLCRAP HATER !

  20. R.... v....

    Brilliant. Just brilliant. I discovered Enya by accident in 1987 when I noticed the CD Enya in a LP/CD/DVD shop

    R.... v....

    Did it already have Orinoco Flow? The funny thing is her songs sound like 80 now, always futuristic, ancient as stone age, and current avantgarde - all at the same time :)

    R.... v....

    @timomastosalo if Reinder mentioning the "Enya" album, it could be The Celts soundtrack album

    R.... v....

    Must have been around the time she did the soundtrack to The Celts 😊

  21. r.... ....

    the songs where she sings in made up or “art languages” are her best songs, tbh. the artistic freedom of singing mostly for the quality of the sound is most beautiful. hope her and Roma develop more languages to sing in

    r.... ....

    rvufo that’s kind of odd actually. If she’s not speaking in tongues , how do ya know the languages are simply artistic impressions or whatever?? For all we know it could be a spiritual thing and not something where we can truly know unless we
    Pray to GOD ALMIGHTY and test the spirit.

    r.... ....

    @Kri MD because they've spoken before on developing the language?

    r.... ....

    @Kri MD Nice job, projecting your incomprehensible and indefensible nonsense onto something any human should be free to enjoy without reservation. If you like the way it sounds, just buy the album to show your appreciation to a great artist. Like @Rivet Squid said, there is plenty of documentation about the creation of the Loxian language/sounds.

  22. R.... N....

    Such mesmerizing music!

  23. D.... ....

    Enya, timeless classics each and every track she has created

  24. M.... Z....

    Ich glaube sie legt keinen Wert auf Public Relations und hat auch keine Lobby. Warum sonst habe ich nie von Dir gehört? Obwohl ich schon immer auf der Suche nach Schönheit und Harmonie war? Gott sei Dank gibt es nun YouTube, so daß ich diesen verborgenen Schatz finden konnte.

  25. G.... ....

    I think this is her best album. And that's saying something.

    G.... ....

    I have to agree. It's like she went off on some really great side-quests, then came back home.

    G.... ....

    @ZorkFox Well, considering she went on vacation after And Winter Came, that is more or less valid.

    G.... ....

    @Blade Zero Well, sort of… but I meant more like: we had Enya (now labeled The Celts) which was like her introductory adventure; then, we had Watermark and Shepherd Moons that were like her first two really big victories over the antagonist or problem, the things that made her known to all the people; then, she went off to explore the kingdom with The Memory of Trees and A Day Without Rain; then, she visited a different star system with Amarantine; then, she had a spectacular and magical and sad adventure in another reality with And Winter Came… then, saw Dark Sky Island up in the firmament and remembered where everything started. :)

  26. A.... D....

    I love this one!

  27. u.... w....

    Loxian Gate and Ebudae! Enya has returned.

    u.... w....

    I've just heard Ebudae at the end of a Northern Exposure episode, yesterday night. 4th season episode 18 Northern Lights.

  28. L.... C....

    To be honest, her music all sounds the same after a while & becomes boring. I liked some of her original tracks but, her newer stuff is not diverse enough & is not much different.

    L.... C....

    You disgust me

    L.... C....

    I'm surprised you think that about Dark Sky Island. Some of the tracks are very different.

    L.... C....

    You need to see a psychiatric

    L.... C....

    That's because you feel the songs deeper than others. You feel the energy and vibes. Hence, your feelings are legitimate. Ignore those shallow minded freaks who wrote nasty comments. They understand only up to their level of perception.
