I love this poem of Saint John of the Cross! But the music and the voice of Loreena McKennitt make it such a delight! I listen to this song every time I am feeling overwhelmed and it always helps me feel better afterwards. Thank you for this gift!
@marianamaus,thank you for explaining where this poem came from, I read up on it ,he John of St Matthias adopted the name when he entered the Carmelite Order,the poem narrates the journey of the soul from its bodily home to the union with God and represents the hardships and difficulties of life that we all have to go through. No wonder it makes me cry when I hear Loreena McKennitt singing her version of this poem.
St. John of The Cross. My favourite Roman Catholic saint. I’m NOT RC. His story, his struggle, in the RC church and in his faith is inspiring. Imprisoned by his own order for his faith beliefs. That right there, holding on to his faith in the face of persecution from his own, that is the mark of a true Saint. May he rest in peace and rise in glory.
I want this song played at my funeral too. Ironically, I always played this song for my twins for naptimes and they always fell asleep without any fussing.

Danke für diesen mystischen zauberhaften Song !!! Fantastische Stimme - unglaublich schöne Bilder - exzellente iinstrumentale Begleitung ! Einfach zum Träumen !!! Ein Seelentröster !
Aşkın, tutkunun tanrı nın hissedilmesi kadar güçlü bir çekim....Loreena ses, şarkılar, sözler evrende dolaşmak gibi bir his veriyor.. Kültürel "kelt" müziklerin hikayeleri olduğu gibi bir dev'in ihtişamı var "AŞK gibi" 🤍🙏🙏 Bu ses, şarkılar, sözler, enstrümanlar muhteşem..
Love is a given not a taken. Yet two souls living together as determination.. It will take lots of tolerance and efforts.. hmmmm.. and yeah dreams.. 😂.. my dear beautiful wife.
Thank you, Ginevra Corvino, for creating such a beautiful visual rendering to accompany one of Loreena McKennitt’s most beautiful songs. We are uplifted by both, but together they are more than the sum of their parts, adding yet more beauty to the human experience. Such moments as these are cherished and give hope for a greater life.
Preciosa canción del poema de San Juan de la Cruz, Loreena te trasporta a otro tiempo, a otro mundo, te hace vibrar alto, es una conexión directa con el cielo, gracias, Loreena por hacernos sentir la música de este modo, escucharla es mi refugio.
if I had only one piece of music to listen to always, it would be this one. After years of listening to this, it never fails to move me deeply on so many levels.
that was the last song my loving mother heard a few hours before she passed away.a month ago...loreena was her favorite..i hope she listened because she had already had began her dark night of her soul....tears come in my eyes every time i isten to it...thank you loreena for making her life beautiful...
Music is the eternal reverberations of the universe. Your mother will certainly hear the universe with beauty we cannot understand in this world. But I have to believe this song gives us a glimpse, and if true, we have nothing to fear, only hope for. Condolences.
I’ve loved her since first hearing her so long ago......she is one of few , for me, is close...so very close, to an angel with music and words....my life has been blessed for this awareness. 😇
What a beautiful voice and a particularly poignant song and words in these very troubling times. Oh for a walk with God and pray for an end to this awful virus. God be with you friends.
I found Loreena by accident around 11 years ago. So glad I did - being of Celtic background - just sank my soul and spirit into her creativity and brilliance of her interpretation of Celtic themes and stories. Sooooooo beautiful.
The most beautiful VOICE ever. The woman most sensitive on Earth. The pleasure of the SOUL. LOREENA is the name most NOBLE of the ART. GODDESS of Spirit of POETRY MUSIC. Simply THE ONE.
Mùsica con la magia que te transporta a èpocas y tiempos lejanos, siendo que, en esas èpocas y desde aquellos tiempos lejanos, el amor existìa en los corazones tan intenso como hoy, y asì seguirà y nunca cambiarà... el amor es un sentimiento absoluto, que nunca cambia... hoy es 16 de agosto de 2024, y seguirè amando esta mùsica, la mùsica de Loreena McKennitt, pues siempre toca y hace vibrar las fibras internas màs profundas y sensibles de mi corazòn... Gracias por compartir!!...
LOREENA is more than an illustrious character of the music. LOREENA is a creative being of the best and highest feelings of the human soul. LOREENA is an absolutely sublime being in your vision of feelings. LOREENA is the best music, voice, words, MAGIC interpretation, etc.etc. WHO HEARS LOREENA, GIVE FOR LOST ALL THE TIME BACK AND TRAVELS TO ANOTHER WORLD. A UNIQUE WORLD. THE WORLD OF THIS GODDESS.
06 juillet 2024 - Bonjour de la France !!! Je découvre ce jour grâce à youtube (merci) , chanson de 1994 ! C'est absolument sublime, un chef d'oeuvre on ne plus délicieux, magique et somptueux. La voix est divine, superbe, fascinante je vais partager avec ma famille et mes ami(e)s Bye ! Take care of you
Good lord is Loreena talented. Just incredibly beautiful music. Just pure brilliance. She is the type of musician I can look up to and respect. Pure emotion placed into every note sung. Strait up perfection.
God is always watching us cuz when we pass and we come we come back this life when I die 3 years ago Angels don't exist it's love stays within your heart somebody very close to me I'm far away she passed and she's in heaven and I know she watches over me light will always shine above our hearts just continue to love as an angel does the world God bless his world Amen
I heard this song a few months ago for the first time but never payed much attention to it. Then on a night I can't sleep listened and saw the date it was posted. In September on the 25th 2011 I had a heart attack. I was out of danger on the 26th of that year, so you might say this has a special meaning to me as that was my "Dark Night of the Soul" . Thank you for posting this.
@@deniseedwards3100 Oh no, this overwhelming song is much older, it's from her album MASK AND THE MIRROR, should have been edited in 1994 if I remember well. 😉
Loreena's music is steeped in swooning melodic twists yet historical, almost like reminiscent dreams that we recant as we Explore Them... Listening to her perform or capture your mind into her DEEP EXOTIC WORLD seems similar to an enriching, #enlightening Nap... you FEEL AWAKENED or rather NOTIFIED that HER WORLD is SO DAMN SPECIAL... it's Extremely HARD To STOP or LEAVE... it's hard to turn off! #seriously Her Music's ADDICTING!!! #addicting #exotic #seductive [too]
I like all songs of prencis Loreena. Coming from soul to soul And music background is very perfect Collecting oriental and west music tools at the same time which are very brilliant.
I see a lot of comments about who initially wrote the words. A lot of comments about Loreena's style and voice ( I agree with you.... absolutely beautiful!) But I am not sure any of you whose comments have understood what it means to actually face your own "dark night of the soul". My wife of 35 years died in 2007, coming up on 13 years now. I was in a bad limbo for several years. Then I had to decide, on my own dark night of the soul, would I live in the past, or let go and choose the future. Lots of challenges in the future, but I am still here and I have a new love. The past is past. Memories are one thing, life is another. Have to make a choice. I chose life.
Dear Robert, I know exactly what you are talking about. I lost my soulmate 5 1/2 years ago, and for quite a while, the world went on without me. There comes a point where you realise you are still part of life and you still have a purpose, and only when you decide to embrace that, will you see it unfold. All the best to you!
I am listening across time and the Stars 🕊️Many Blessings Queen Loreen, Angels , Light and Love. You Are the past and future, singing prayers and meditation
How I love your voice. Resonance of the Renaissance and ages past.....echo through my heart and soul. May blessings fall upon you for sharing your gift. Thankful for that kitchen table where your journey began. Our kitchen tables share the true stories. My heritage is from William The Conquerer and Eleanor of Aquitaine.
Upon a darkened night The flame of love was burning in my breast And by a lantern bright I fled my house while all in quiet rest Shrouded by the night And by the secret stair I quickly fled The veil concealed my eyes While all within lay quiet as the dead Oh night thou was my guide Of night more loving than the rising sun Oh night that joined the lover To the beloved one Transforming each of them into the other Upon that misty night In secrecy, beyond such mortal sight Without a guide or light Than that which burned so deeply in my heart That fire t'was led me on And shone more bright than of the midday sun To where he waited still It was a place where no one else could come Oh night thou was my guide Of night more loving than the rising sun Oh night that joined…
Loreena has changed the words of Saint John of the Cross's poem to remove a reference to all souls being feminine to God, males also. The original uses "her Beloved" when referring to St. John's love for God. But...apart from that one quibble, Loreena is absolutely fantastic. I think even Jesus Christ himself must be one of her biggest fans.
@@vrindavanam741 (continuation of the verses) ... it was a place where no one else could come Within my pounding heart Which kept itself entirely for him He fell into his sleep Beneath the cedars all my love I gave From o'er the fortress walls The wind would brush his hair against his brow And with its smoothest hand Caressed my every sense it would allow Oh night thou was my guide Oh night more bright than the rising sun Oh night who joined the lover to the beloved one transformimg each of them into the other I lost myself to him and laid my face upon my lover's breast and care and grief grew dim as in the morning mist became the light There they dimmed amongst the lilies fair there they dimmed amongst the lilies fair there they dimmed amongst the lilies fair
I simply cannot put into words how beautiful this piece is.... it takes my breath away. Every aspect, music, imagery, lyrics and most of all Loreena McKennitt's pure voice!
thank you sylvia van den breok for bringing to me this wonderful voice to my ears ,i will be forever greatful to you ,i love lorrena mckennits songs and her beautiful voice...
Exquisite . . . the music, interpretation, images. Thank you for the loving gifts- Lorena, Phillip, and John of the Cross. Speaks to the Divine DNA in us all.
When I listen to Loreena’s music, my heart and soul are transported to Heaven and, so, I KNOW that the Father is showing me His love through this music. Thank You, Dear, Beautiful Father. I truly DO love You!
Maravillosa version de un poema de San Juan de la Cruz hay que tener una extraordinaria sensibilidad para atreverse con esto.Pero es que es Loreena!!!!!
El divino regalo de la vida...fue escucharte tan cerca...aún llevo ese sentimiento conmigo...fue en 2018...en Buenos Aires...Ojalá vuelves ... Aún me siento elevada ..eres un ángel.❤
The beautiful graphics complement San Juan's words and Loreena's peerless song. Most of the images are evocative women in solitude - reminding me of John of the Cross's mystic, contemplative friend, Teresa of Avila. His guidance through the dark night of the soul resonates with her 'interior castle.' How wonderful to pause here! Thank you, Ginevra.
So hauntingly beautiful, the depth and intensity of Loreena's music and voice, so wonderfully shown with this song as well as with many of her other songs.
This is indeed wonderful music and Lorenna's angelic voice combined with mystic images. close yor eyes, just listen and it takes me away from this ungodly world which humans are slowly destroying.
a great poem that Lorena with her wonderful voice gives it another dimension..... if you don't experience the black night of the soul how will you be freed....❤ hello from Greece ❤
Heaven is calling. And I’m listening in 2024. 😍😍😍
I love this poem of Saint John of the Cross! But the music and the voice of Loreena McKennitt make it such a delight! I listen to this song every time I am feeling overwhelmed and it always helps me feel better afterwards. Thank you for this gift!

I am sure this song and singer will be remembered in five hundred years. The human being brings thoughts to coming generations.
My grandmother had this song played at her funeral. Beautiful moment..thank u Loreena
Sounds like your grandmother had good taste in music and singer's.
I want this song played at my funeral too. Ironically, I always played this song for my twins for naptimes and they always fell asleep without any fussing.
SUCH BEAUTY WOVEN BETWEEN VOICE, WORD AND MUSIC .
I have been listening to Loreena McKennitt for many years, and have never heard a voice with the same range, clarity and emotion.
Yes...
She sure is Magnificent, yet often HAUNTING, as LOREENA seems to have Mystical Powers to transcend into our SOULS.
She's SPECIAL!
Then Listen To
Enya ..(If I could Be where you are ) ...it's very similar hope you listen to it Be Blessed
@@reedasrealms3320
Both Celtic SingerSongwriters and Producers are Magnificent...
Don't think we should be Ranking Them, they're both Exceptional and providing us with INCREDIBLE Compositions that Inspire us.
Seems that you're 'Criticizing' by suggesting ENYA is superior? WHY mention her in this way?
LOREENA is a musical Leader striving to enhance our World; believe that she deserves Respect on her work.
It just doesn't SEEM FAIR to knock such inspirational Artists in an effort to bring attention to another.

Danke für diesen mystischen zauberhaften Song !!!
Fantastische Stimme - unglaublich schöne Bilder -

Could listen to her all day and not get tired of it. Beautiful just beautiful
She is like NO other artist such a soothing voice
Loreena has a beautiful voice and this is a gorgeous song. So moving!
So very beautiful. The song, the voice, the art work for the video. Thoughts of times long gone.
Ihr Musik und ihre Stimme 🙏🙏😍😍😍. Mit Abstand das Schönste, was ich gehört habe. ❤❤
That song is so pure and so sweet
Loreena e Enya, dois anjos que vieram a terra nos presentear com um pouquinho do céu através de música.
Que hermosa comparación haces...y así es, son dos ángeles para mostrarnos que Dios existe en su voz y música 🎶
Muy de acuerdo voces que ya nadie tiene para cantar hermosas interpretaciones
Aşkın, tutkunun tanrı nın hissedilmesi kadar güçlü bir çekim....Loreena ses, şarkılar, sözler evrende dolaşmak gibi bir his veriyor..
Kültürel "kelt" müziklerin hikayeleri olduğu gibi bir dev'in
ihtişamı var "AŞK gibi" 🤍🙏🙏
Bu ses, şarkılar, sözler, enstrümanlar muhteşem..
To find true love and lose that love is to wear widow’s weeds forever. I shall move in the wind until we meet again.
I understand only too well. Mine has been gone 24 years. We will see each other again.
O meu saiu do meu caminho arrancado.
Se Jesus quiser põe no meu caminho novamente.
Be comforted. Prayers.
This is Beautifully poetic and only understood by those of us who live it ❤️🩹
Love is a given not a taken. Yet two souls living together as determination..
It will take lots of tolerance and efforts.. hmmmm.. and yeah dreams.. 😂.. my dear beautiful wife.

Loreena McKennitt has the voice of an Angelic Lullaby. I have many of her CDs, and it's time that others explore the Magic of her Voice...
Thank you for this beautiful music, brings back memories from year 2008.
if I had only one piece of music to listen to always, it would be this one. After years of listening to this, it never fails to move me deeply on so many levels.
Me too !

Rest in peace at the hand of this angelical song!
Wonderful music, and lovely art, thanks for sharing Loreena's music with us.
Eu adoro a PAZ que as musicas da Lorrena me traz. Eu viajo para meu mundo dos sonhos de uma vida magica.
Loreena has to be an ancient soul! All her music takes you back to another time.
Yes absolutely, an old old soul
I’ve loved her since first hearing her so long ago......she is one of few , for me, is close...so very close, to an angel with music and words....my life has been blessed for this awareness. 😇
She lost her fiancé. She sings from the depths of "loss".
I live by the sea and took her music to the beach in the mornings .
Celtic ancestry??
What a beautiful voice and a particularly poignant song and words in these very troubling times. Oh for a walk with God and pray for an end to this awful virus. God be with you friends.
Gives me hope for the future. And Peace.

This music has the power to make a trip for our soul. It´s divine!
Loreena's voice pulls you into her story. You are hypnotized and find yourself emersed in her words, drifting on the notes of her beautiful voice.
She is magic.

Her Music's ADDICTING!!!

She Never sings from her throat but she sings from thé bottom of her soul
I like all songs of prencis Loreena.
Coming from soul to soul
And music background is very perfect
Collecting oriental and west music tools at the same time which are very brilliant.
there is only one Loreena Mckennit she is one of a kind a voice like no other and a brilliant multi instrumentalist absolutely world class
Truly she is magic and music, so artfully combined.
I love Loreena's songs! My sister got me hooked. Beautiful!
I see a lot of comments about who initially wrote the words. A lot of comments about Loreena's style and voice ( I agree with you.... absolutely beautiful!)
But I am not sure any of you whose comments have understood what it means to actually face your own "dark night of the soul".
My wife of 35 years died in 2007, coming up on 13 years now. I was in a bad limbo for several years. Then I had to decide, on my own dark night of the soul, would I live in the past, or let go and choose the future. Lots of challenges in the future, but I am still here and I have a new love.
The past is past. Memories are one thing, life is another. Have to make a choice.
I chose life.
Dear Robert, I know exactly what you are talking about. I lost my soulmate 5 1/2 years ago, and for quite a while, the world went on without me. There comes a point where you realise you are still part of life and you still have a purpose, and only when you decide to embrace that, will you see it unfold. All the best to you!

Upon a darkened night
The flame of love was burning in my breast
And by a lantern bright
I fled my house while all in quiet rest
Shrouded by the night
And by the secret stair I quickly fled
The veil concealed my eyes
While all within lay quiet as the dead
Oh night thou was my guide
Of night more loving than the rising sun
Oh night that joined the lover
To the beloved one
Transforming each of them into the other
Upon that misty night
In secrecy, beyond such mortal sight
Without a guide or light
Than that which burned so deeply in my heart
That fire t'was led me on
And shone more bright than of the midday sun
To where he waited still
It was a place where no one else could come
Oh night thou was my guide
Of night more loving than the rising sun
Oh night that joined…
Che magnifici versi !
Please edit and complete the lines
Obrigada por quem postou a letra. Música divina 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

(continuation of the verses)
... it was a place where no one else could come
Within my pounding heart
Which kept itself entirely for him
He fell into his sleep
Beneath the cedars all my love I gave
From o'er the fortress walls
The wind would brush his hair against his brow
And with its smoothest hand
Caressed my every sense it would allow
Oh night thou was my guide
Oh night more bright than the rising sun
Oh night who joined the lover to the beloved one
transformimg each of them into the other
I lost myself to him
and laid my face upon my lover's breast
and care and grief grew dim
as in the morning mist became the light
There they dimmed amongst the lilies fair
there they dimmed amongst the lilies fair
there they dimmed amongst the lilies fair
Wonderful, heart-rending song, love it !!!
