(lyrics by Frank Musker, music by Ronan Hardiman)
|
|
Born with the voice of an angel
|
|
A boy with the earth on his hands
|
For this child of the lowly
|
Fate had made other plans
|
He was only a man of the people
|
With barely his clothes to his name
|
But when he sang - there was magic
|
Touched by love's sacred flame
|
La fiamma sacra
|
|
Chorus
|
Holy fire in his soul
|
Born to conquer the dark
|
A man who came ? to carry the flame
|
Awakening ? la fiamma sacra
|
|
He sang to the soul of a nation
|
A voice for the meek and the strong
|
A world of fabulous stories
|
Came to life in his song
|
With a gift for the whole of creation
|
He gave not for fortune or fame
|
A simple man ? blessed with magic
|
Touched by love's sacred flame
|
La fiamma sacra
|
|
Chorus
|
Holy fire in his soul
|
Born to conquer the dark
|
A man who came ? to carry the flame
|
With a voice that can speak ? to the heart
|
|
Holy fire in his soul
|
Born to conquer the dark
|
A man who came ? to carry the flame
|
Awakening ? la fiamma sacra
|
