lyrics

A symbol of alliance a marker of friendship
The bond between the people are hanging from his hip
The firefly dominion have given forth their trust
To light the murky forest and navigate the dusk

A hundred fireflies or more shall light your way
Singing from their iron home casting golden rays
Once they were an enemy two kingdoms both at war
We put aside our differences to build a better world

Lantern of the Fireflies
Shining out into the night
Dancing with their sacred light
Destiny is calling
Lantern of the Fireflies
Glowing in the swamp at night
Filling up the dusk with light
Destiny is calling

Through the twilight forest peering past the leaves
The lantern shines a spotlight a secret ‘neath the trees
Casting wicked shadows along the forest floor
A mystic magic ambience surrounds the woodland door

A hundred fireflies or more shall light your way
Singing from their iron home casting golden rays
Once they were an enemy two kingdoms both at war
We put aside our differences to build a better world

Lantern of the Fireflies
Shining out into the night
Dancing with their sacred light
Destiny is calling
Lantern of the Fireflies
Glowing in the swamp at night
Filling up the dusk with light
Destiny is calling

A hundred fireflies or more shall light your way
Singing from their iron home casting golden rays
Once they were an enemy two kingdoms both at war
We put aside our differences to build a better world

Lantern of the Fireflies
Shining out into the night
Dancing with their sacred light
Destiny is calling
Lantern of the Fireflies
Glowing in the swamp at night
Filling up the dusk with light
Destiny is calling
