lyrics

'Til your eyes find me I'm strong as my bones
'Til then here I stand, I am strong as my bones
'Til your eyes find me I am strong as my bones
'Til then, only then I am strong as my bones

Then only then I am all self-doubt
All my will and my won't fly out of my mouth
Like a little white dove that you've trained so well
To sing prettily along to another bird's song

'Til your eyes find me I am strong as my bones
'Til then, only then I am strong as my bones
'Til your eyes find me I am strong as my bones
'Til then, only then I am strong as my bones

Meanwhile I’m tall, I am tow'ring above
All your hate in your soul can't undo this self-love
Like a little white dove that will soar on the wind
Proudly bruising my lungs with the songs I have sung

'Til your eyes find me I am strong as my bones
'Til then, only then I am strong as my bones
'Til your eyes find me I am strong as my bones
'Til then, only then I am strong as my bones

I'll beat my breast cry a great fearsome cry
See you cowering then, as I fly high
And when I am done, oh I’ll swoop on down
Seeking those eyes of judgement, I'll peck 'em out

'Til your eyes find me I am strong as my bones
'Til then, only then I am strong as my bones
'Til your eyes find me I am strong as my bones
'Til then, only then I am strong as my bones

But for now I belong to no beast, man, or thing
My own self is my own I am strong as my bones
Like a fierce bird of prey that knows only the hunt
With a strength you don't know how your pretty bird's flown

'Til your eyes find me I am strong as my bones
'Til then, only then I am strong as my bones
'Til your eyes find me I am strong as my bones
'Til then, only then I am strong as my bones
'Til your eyes find me I am strong as my bones
'Til then, only then I am strong as my bones
'Til your eyes find me I am strong as my bones
'Til then, only then I am strong as my bones

Winter Sun
by Fiachna O Braonain

supported by 5 fans who also own “Birdsong (Arvo Party remix)”

Fiachna Winter Sun just brings me to my knees. The fiddle and flute completely summons my core to the submission of such beauty. Just played this again after your performance with Tom Dunne and Alan Conner on The Late Late Show. Your energy on the trad song was incredible. Still grappling with a continent and an ocean keeping me at bay with the gigs of humanity being right there in Ireland. Dont Stop! David and Delfina Hernandez
