开始时,它以一个缓慢气息与一些熟悉的碎片交汇进入旋律。
我们试图赶走那块儿,但它不会消失。也许它想要不同的存在方式…… 我们决定添加歌词,并请爱尔兰作家布兰登.格雷厄姆听。 他的两部畅销小说《最白的花》和《火的元素》都是关于爱尔兰饥荒时期埃伦·鲁阿·奥马利生活的,这两部小说给了我们很大的启发。 他立刻开始在旋律中“听到故事”……
Started life as a slow air with fragments of a familiar weaving its way into the melody.
We tried to banish the piece but it would not go away.
Maybe it wanted a different life-form...and so, we decided to pursue the idea of adding lyrics and asked Irish writer Brendan Graham to listen to it.
His books"The Whitest Flower"and"The Element of Fire"-two best selling novels about the life of Ellen Rua O'Malley during the Irish famine, had inspired us strongly.
He immediately began to "hear the story" in the melody and by that same evening had shaped the first draft of you raise me up ……
布伦登·格雷厄姆所写的下面这段是全曲高潮,单词 hunger 饥饿出现:
There is no life - no life without its hunger; each restless heart beats so imperfectly;
But when you come and I am filled with wonder, Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity.
