The song is “may it be” also “the morning prayer”. She plays all the instruments and does her own back up singing.

There's a radio station I listen to that has a Celtic music show every Saturday but they never play Enya. I always wondered why because I always imagined Enya to be a superstar in the Celtic music genre.

But it turns out that Enya is considered "New Age" and not Celtic at all. In fact, many hard-core Celtic fans look at Enya as rock fans look at Barry Manilow or Coldplay.

I am particularly looking for instrumental-only albums for my i-Pod. Love Celtic, Celtic-jazz, fusion-jazz, even some “new age” (hate the name, like some of the style).

Recommendations? Has to be instrumental, no words.

May It Be

Composed and performed by Enya
Lyrics by Roma Ryan

May it be an evening star
Shines down upon you
May it be when darkness falls
Your heart will be true
You walk a lonely road
Oh! How far you are from home

Mornie utúlie (darknesss has come)
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantie (darknesss has fallen)
A promise lives within you now

May it be the shadows call
Will fly away
May it be your journey on
To light the day
When the night is overcome
You may rise to find the sun

Mornie utúlie (darknesss has come)
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantie (darknesss has fallen)
A promise lives within you now

A promise lives within you now

I cry about fifty percent of the time listening to her songs.

My favorite is

How Can I Keep From Singing

My life goes on in endless song
Above earths lamentations,
I hear the real, though far-off hymn
That hails a new creation.

Through all the tumult and the strife
I hear its music ringing,
It sounds an echo in my soul.
How can I keep from singing?

While though the tempest loudly roars,
I hear the truth, it liveth.
And though the darkness round me close,
Songs in the night it giveth.

No storm can shake my inmost calm,
While to that rock Im clinging.
Since love is lord of heaven and earth
How can I keep from singing?

When tyrants tremble in their fear
And hear their death knell ringing,
When friends rejoice both far and near
How can I keep from singing?

In prison cell and dungeon vile
Our thoughts to them are winging,
When friends by shame are undefiled
How can I keep from singing?
