Opened the portals to the worlld beyond
Emerging from the shadows
The wind carries their whispering

Echoes from days of old

As the summer leaves

And life fades away
The spirit of the dead
Awaits to return


Autumn fires are burning
To light their ways

Sacred this night is
When boundaries of life and death disappear
When the dead leave their realm


To touch the world of mortals
For some of us to hear


When the dead leave their realm
To touch the world of mortals

For some of us to see

When the dead leave their realm

To touch the world of mortals
Just a few will understand


Let the fires burn bright
To guard their ways
Closing the circle of life and death

This night belongs to the dead...
