Lyric

In every stone, in every tree, beside the hearth fire

Nameless voices whisper, silent and deep

Before the morning breaks across the sky

The gods awaken softly from their sleep

A gentle wind comes drifting across the sea

Knocking on the windows of a distant land

Whispering softly, “Can you hear me?”

A greeting carried from an ancient shore

Carrying eight million voices in the air

The wind blows freely west and east

You don't have to bow your head and pray

Just being alive is enough, at least

From this ancient land to the ends of the earth

Let the breath of the gods ride on the wind

Carrying the stories, carrying the light

Let this ancient spirit reach the world tonight

In every mountain, in every river that flows

A story lives and breathes along the way

A quiet wish to live together

Has been part of this land for ages

Rather than bowing to a single god

We listen closely to a thousand voices

There is a light within the smallest things

And when you see it, the world begins to change

Carrying eight million voices in the air

The wind blows freely west and east

You don't have to bow your head and pray

Just being alive is enough, at least

From this ancient land to the ends of the earth

Let the breath of the gods ride on the wind

Carrying the stories, carrying the light

Let this ancient spirit reach the world tonight

The voice of love that crossed the land of death

The tears of a princess who returned to the moon

All of them became a part of this wind

And now that ancient wind is blowing straight to you

Eight million voices

Eight million winds

From the mountains

From the rivers

From the forests

From the sea

From the people

From the gods

Can you hear them?

From the ancient land

To the distant shore

From yesterday

Into tomorrow

Can you hear them?

Eight million voices!

Eight million winds!

A thousand stories!

A thousand lights!

THE WIND IS BLOWING!

THE WIND IS BLOWING!

THE WIND IS BLOWING!

I can hear the voices

I can feel the wind

Across every border

The journey begins

There is nothing to fear

There is nothing to hide

The gods are beside us

They're walking tonight

I WON'T TURN AWAY!

I WON'T TURN AWAY!

Eight million voices

Calling through the night!

And when the noise is gone

I can finally hear my heart

Carrying eight million voices in the air

The wind crosses every border in the world

There's nothing to fear in the gods beside us

They're always there, wherever we go

From this island to the distant shore

From ancient stories to a brand-new day

Let the wind of a thousand voices

Rise up and carry us away

Eight million voices

Eight million winds

From this island to the world

We are connected again

Eight million voices

Eight million winds

From the ancient past

Into the world tonight

Eight million winds are blowing

Somewhere in the night

From this island to the world

This wind will connect us all

Eight million winds are blowing

Somewhere in the night

From this island to the world

This wind will connect us all
