Mumford & Sons - Beloved Lyrics






Sit enthroned in white grandeur
But tired
And shift a wisp of wayward silver hair
From your eyes
I'd never seen you unkempt before
As you whisper darling close the door

How have I not made a note of every word
You ever said
And time is not on our side but I'll pretend
That it's alright
She says the Lord has a plan
But admits it's pretty hard to understand

Before you leave
You must know you are beloved
And before you leave
Remember I was with you

Are you afraid
However could you not be
In this rosy light
This is strange
I feel a hand come through the mirror
Pointing at the light
Point at the light we never see
As you put your feathered arms over me

Before you leave
You must know you are beloved
And before you leave
Remember I was with you
And as you leave
I won't hold you back beloved

We'll sit and talk
The stars down from the sky
And I'll not forget the chaos in your eyes love

And as you leave
You must know you are beloved
And as you leave
I can see the wild has come for you
And as you leave
I won't hold you back beloved
And as you leave
See my children playing at your feet

    Love the video but I hate how they chopped up the song..

  2. E.... G....

    ohhhhh, this is my FAVORITE! Our horses are waiting for us, My Little Seanny Puppy cowboy. This shows the brief moments when we were "allowed" to be free together ... for a minute ... now for ETERNITY! I love you, Seanny. "I know you love me, Mom." That one line has sustained me. Knowing you knew I loved you, my precious SUN! ☀️😘

  3. M.... P....

    For Angie, my darling sister whose hand I held when she died of cancer 9 months ago, remember I was with you x

  4. M.... P....

    Una obra de arte <3

  5. M.... B....

    I listened to a podcast where they talked about how they wrote this for a dead family member, and that makes it so much more meaningful. Anyone who is going through something right now, you are beloved

  6. g.... ....

    Love the band!

    I just learned he wrote this song for his Grandma. It made me even more emotional because my grandma (father’s side) passed away a year ago, I can’t even remember the last time I had seen her, probably 2013. I spent a few summers over at her house which was a bit too far from where I lived so I never really see her that much except for those 3 summers, when I was around 9-11 years old.

    My parents separated and that was the end of me spending vacation at my grandma’s because I wouldnt wanna leave my mom, as it was only the two of us now. I guess I changed completely and I got a bit depressed and distant to everyone, and I never even contacted my grandma or greet her during the holidays, or probably I did just two or three times over the years. My depression made me think no one cares about me, my grandma among them.

    Even as a child i was never fully comfortable being with other people, except my mom and my grandma. I’ve only truly known my grandma those 3 summers but i just felt so close to her. It sucks, idk why I was the way I was and I didnt realize how old she was getting and how I was wasting time not even calling or visiting her.

    During her funeral, my uncle told me she will always talk about me. He said she will always tell people about her granddaughter who lived far away, but that she was so proud of. (It was around the time i just graduated and is working at my first job) I never even got to buy her something out of my own money. It makes me sad because I realized she never really knew me as an adult anymore, or who I’ve become as a grown up before she died. I feel like she died disappointed in me.

    I miss her so much, I wish I wasnt such a depressed person and checked in with her regularly. I wish she lived nearby too, it wouldve been much easier. Sometimes it feels as if she was still alive and just far away. I just thought we would have more time, she’s always looked so strong and bigger than life 😭😢

  8. M.... G....

    The melody and the way he sings the part “You must know you are beloved” is so incredibly sweet. 😢

  9. S.... D....

    Isn’t this the best fucking song ever made!!? 🥺😭❤️❤️❤️❤️

  10. C.... W....

    The only thing is that all the stealing isn’t cute.

  20. A.... P....

    Alla fine sogno e realtà, si confondono

  21. E.... H....

    I lost my sister (who was more like a mother) unexpectedly. It's already been 3 months but yet still seems so surreal. This song hits really hard and I wish I could have told her how truly loved she was by everyone she came in contact with. She was my sister, best friend, and the glue to my family.

  22. G.... C....

    My mom, my wife, this song just pulls the loss out of my heart and takes me too that moment, and when I think of my son like me having lost his mom, I remember them , crying while I watch this knowing they are watching us. I miss you and love you mom, and you my beloved wife Christina

  23. J.... G....

    love it!

  24. r.... b....

    Ciao babbo

  25. P.... S....

    If someone does not cry watching this video ...wow

  26. a.... ....

    😥 Beautiful 🎵👏

  27. E.... ....

    I lost my Mom in June 2018. She had a stroke and passed away in the hospital a few days later. In December, I got tickets to see Mumford and Sons and did so in March 2019. It was on my bucket list to do and it was incredible. I love many of their songs but this one, especially with the video, stands out the most. Its been almost a year and a half now but I would give anything to be that little boy again (I am 43) and have one more adventure with my Mom. One more laugh. One more hug. One more word.

    Thank you Marcus for this song. It has helped me so much in the last year. And seeing you perform it, and others, live was an experience I will never forget.

  28. T.... S....

    I lost custody of my 3 year old son after a brutally long court battle where I ran out of money to keep fighting. This song captures how l feel.

  29. S.... C....

    Took a trip down memory lane watching the Bonnaroo concert which brought me here. I really like your new sound! Definitely will be searching for more. 🌸

  41. R.... P....

    Maybe one day I'll be able to listen to this song without breaking down but I think I've got to give it a rest, this is a very hard song to listen to but damn is it beautiful.

  42. R.... ....

She was the most important friend and beloved xtian in our school in Spain . She was beloved and incredible SUBVIVOUR all time that she could . ( Soto voce never won). Now , 2019, all of us...remember her like an incredible happiness survivor and warrior of XTO/ ISSA. ( she was like a first rose/ white/ blue light). She was for us ...the theacher of survivors and warriors of XTO. ( ISSA), in fact, she was the frisrt clown / critical / important / " survivor animal" / etc...of ATROZ , TERR.... She was REAL. She was and is important. She was beloved FOR EVER . For 4 of us...she was our second MOTHER. She was pinter, singer, dansingner, she was OUR SOULD. She was writer of dringmers. She was a very very warrior of XTO/ ISSA. SHE WAS REAL.

  72. N.... F....

  73. V.... V....

    Mom its been more than 2 years and every single day i think about and i wished i was with you mother
    I love you mom I'm here because of only you. The only pain that I'm having is you and father are not with me. This blood and soul is yours. Bless me mother bless me father

  74. S.... B....

    This is such a beautiful song.
    It's about making someone happy in their last moments/days, giving them a sort of peace, knowing that someone is there, and putting their pain and slight regrets to the side just to give their loved one peace before they leave. Letting them know they are loved, that this person wants what's best for them, for them to go peacefully, and that they won't hold them back, and how much respect they hold for them, helping them not to be scared because this is terrifying for them both and it's better to give someone peace, love, and happy things to think about instead of the situation.
    It's beautiful, it's one of the most selfless things I've encountered in a while.

    Loss hurts like hell and I admire you for being able to give your loved one this.

  75. K.... L....

    2 days ago I lost my best and only friend my mama. I Loved her with all my being. There are all these people around me but I'm empty and broken inside. I'm so alone.

  88. J.... O....

    2019 : " Asseguda en un tron ​​entre blanca majestuositat,
    però cansada.
    I apartes un floc de desobedient pèl platejat
    dels teus ulls.
    Mai abans t'havia vist despentinada,
    mentre xiuxiueges: amor, tanca la porta.

    Com no he pres nota de cada paraula
    que alguna vegada vas dir ?
    I el temps no està de la nostra part,
    però fingiré que tot va bé
    Ella diu que el Senyor té un pla,
    però admet que és bastant difícil d'entendre.

    Abans que te'n
    has de saber que ets estimada.
    I abans que te'n vaig
    recorda que jo vaig ser amb tu.

    Estàs espantada ?
    Com podies no estar-ho
    sota aquesta llum rosada.
    Això és estrany,
    sento un cop de mà aparèixer en el mirall,
    apuntant a la llum,
    apuntant a la llum que mai veiem,
    mentre tu poses els teus braços amb plomes sobre mi.

    Abans que te'n vagis,
    has de saber que ets estimada.
    I abans que te'n vagis,
    recorda que jo vaig ser amb tu.
    I mentre te'n vas,
    jo no et retindré, estimada.

    Ens asseurem i parlarem,
    les estrelles baixaran del cel,
    i jo no oblidaré el caos en els teus ulls, amor.

    I mentre te'n vas,
    has de saber que ets estimada.
    I mentre te'n vas,
    puc veure la natura salvatge ha vingut a buscar-te
    I mentre te'n vas,
    jo no et retindré, estimada.
    I mentre te'n vas,
    veig els meus fills jugant als teus peus."

  89. A.... A....

    As a human society we need more Mumford and Sons and less Cardi B

    A.... A....

    Anuj Aryal I don’t know about that we just need music that means something and tells a story not specific to one artist

    A.... A....

    Egan Dog yes. That’s what I mean. Most of today’s music don’t make sense to me but this is gold.

  90. E.... D....

    Is this his mom or sister cause I feel like the women acts more like a sister

  91. S.... T....

    Can't believe this video was recorded in my hometown of port Talbot in South wales

  92. l.... f....

    I HATE this - lived it.

  93. A.... L....

    I lost my husband, mother, father and dog in 1 1/2  yrs. I'm still not anywhere close to being "over" it. Hard to say good-by to them under those circumstances.

    A.... L....

    Goes bless u....

  94. K.... S....

    Masterpiece. There are a couple of songs that truly touch me/ remind of those I've lost along the way

    Mumford and sons - just smoke , beloved
    Fink - yesterday was hard on all of us
    Kings of Leon - pyro, wait for me

    Thank you for the music. No genre attached. Just music for the soul.

  95. R.... B....

    😭😭😭 i just wanna hold my mom one last time...

  96. J.... R....

    Last year, same day my father died and this mv came out on my recommendation.

  97. C.... S....

    This is so beautiful and moving.
