i'm also very interested in reading them. i've tried to write them down, but the reverb makes it really difficult for me. i've just taken some few words, far from enough to post anything...
it'd be really nice if someone could get them.
anyway, i'll keep on trying.

Oke, here's a go:

1: (...) that day quite like Briar
2: As the sun rises overseas.
3: Would you fullfill my heart's desire
4: Of one who persons still (...)

I'm not sure about line 1 and 4, but I'm sure about 2 and 3. Although, as you can see, I can't hear some words in the lines due to the reverb and bad quality.

These lyrics sound quite familiar. ;)

octavio molano sent this through the amarok mailing list:

  ............................
  as the sun rises on the sea,
  for to fulfill the heart's desire,
  of one who bears Excalibur.


and gandalph has completed them:

  Behold the flame that burns like fire
  As the sun rises from the sea,
  For to fulfil my heart's desire,
  Of one who bears Excalibur.


in the fourth verse i had understood:

  i'll find (maybe 'i found' ) the blessed excalibur

but after listening carefully i realize they both are right. it makes sense.
i still find some slight differences, then it could be something like

  behold the flame that burns my fire
  as the sun rises from the sea
  for to fulfill the heart's desire
  of one who bears excalibur

beautiful words...
cheers
:)

According to Wikipedia an alternative name for Excalibur is Caliburn - or, to get rid of the Latin influence, Kali burn. The sword to be wielded by Arthor. Interestingly, in Hinduism the one to destroy Kali is the messiah Kalki.
