The ash long gone
Nurtures all the trees
Her sapling children never sleep
The willow throws her branches high
And hawthorn silhouettes the sky
They'll burn orange
Then burn yellow
Then burn gold
The walnut strong
Proves all is fine
And birch and maple, oak and pine
With colours stained by all that's pure
Their silent wisdom will endure
And burn orange
Then burn yellow
Then burn gold
Let's learn from them
Both you and I
Lay low and silent for a while
Wait for the promise of our spring to come
Then shine our colours on everyone
We'll burn orange
We'll burn yellow
We'll burn gold
We'll burn orange
We'll burn yellow
We'll burn gold
Silent night, Holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Glories stream from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace
