This is from the soundtrack of the anime movie Escaflowne, which I received as a Christmas present many a year ago. It was a while ago, but if I remember correctly I actually had this song in my music collection long before I’d watched the movie. This song (and all of its multiple renditions) never ceases to captivate me. This version in particular is painfully pretty, largely to the credit of Shanti Snyder’s pure voice. I’ve seen claims that the lyrics are in old Romanian, but I doubt this is true. Instead, it seems to be a mixture of words taken from different languages.
