Lyrics
[verse]
Three stars in a line on the hunter's belt
Like three strings tight on a wooden neck
The kithara went to the desert winds
And came back home as the guitar's deck
[chorus]
Strings of Orion, play for me
From the Nile to the Spanish sea
Every string is a road of light
Playing the stars into the night
[verse]
They called the hunter the soul of the king
Rising again in the eastern sky
So pluck the string and the star will ring
And the soul goes home on high
[chorus]
Strings of Orion, play for me
From the Nile to the Spanish sea
Every string is a road of light
Playing the stars into the night
