One flame for the living
One flame for the gone
Beyond the great water
We followed the dawn
Then taught them to the children beside the flame
What called us home through the longest night
A familiar voice and a window of light
Keep it low, keep it bright
Guard the small flame through the night
For every child, still dreaming here
For every name we will not lose
No sword ringer, no shield was raised
Still she fought through darker days
One flame for the gone
Beyond the great water
We followed the dawn
Then taught them to the children beside the flame
What called us home through the longest night
A familiar voice and a window of light
Keep it low, keep it bright
Guard the small flame through the night
For every child, still dreaming here
For every name we will not lose
No sword ringer, no shield was raised
Still she fought through darker days
