Lyrics

In the wild hills the spirits never sleep
But the willow weeps, oh mother hear us
The mountains once spoke as loud as thunder
We can hear them still beneath the Horgat Manor
We walked in starlight under a silver moon
And the poet's song kept us warm in winter
Then the wagons came over hill and down dale
To rape the land with smoke and fire
In the wild hills the spirits never sleep
And we hear them speak in wind and bird song
While the savage beast draws us closer to the abyss
We'll save the land from death by poison
We'll use the energy from the sun to heat water
And change the desert plain once more into arable land
And then we can plant more grain
And stop freeing animals for slaughter
It's a time of change, everything is moving
We'll store the energy from the sun in huge crystals
We'll find in hidden caves
New ways of making life and water levitate like flames
Old stones for megalithic shelters
It's a time of change, the wheel is set in motion
The wheel is set in motion
The wheel is set in motion
In the wild hills, the spirits never sleep
In the wild hills
In the wild hills
If tomorrow I was leaving for Lhasa
Then I wouldn't stay a minute more
