Okay, people who can refer to Critical Mass, I need some help.


I'm trying to get the text of the song Teyla sings at the ceremony. I'm terrible at listening to songs and picking out lyrics, unfortunately. I actually think I have most of this one correct, but there's a bit that continues to elude me.

Here's what I'm pretty sure of:

Beyond the night, a rising sun
Beyond the night the battle's won
The battle is won

Fear and shame now in the past
Pain and sorrow gone at last
Gone at last

Circle renewed
Peace will be found
Beyond the night
On sacred ground


But this last bit... this is what it sounds like to my poor stupid cold-plugged ears, but the parts in brackets I'm rather unsure about.

[River flows lead by the wind
Blessed new breath] our journey begins
Our journey begins


Can anyone help? Confirm or deny? Someone on one of the ST lists actually uploaded the wma to YSI, but I'm not sure if I should post the link seeing as how YSI (iirc) has limited downloads. Here... I'll upload it to my own space.

Haven't seen the episode but I downloaded the clip and you're right - at least, that's what it sounds like to me, too. Listened to it three times to make sure! :)

Listened to the clip and that is definitely what that says. I'll check out the epi tonight to make sure it sounds the same there to me. But if that's the song you're right on the money :-)

Heehee!

TY. This is actually an old icon. So old I don't even remember where I got it from. But it was someone else's original idea. I just loved it and had to have and now can't remember who the credit does belong to :-)

Close!

River flows, led by the wind
First new breath, her journey begins
Her journey begins

Hmm, now I'm torn! Not that I don't trust you... I just generally don't trust closed-captioning ;)

Thanks for the song link and lyrics. I thought the song was beautiful, but wasn't sure if I liked how it was used in the show. I thought the B plot a little contrived to showcase Rachel's singing - which isn't a totally bad thing, just odd. Teyla definitely needs more screen time and character development, I just didn't think it should have been while Atlantis was under such a threat. I thought each story line would have been good, but together they detracted from one another. YMMV.
