I love GW2, I love Jeremy Soule, but for me this sounds like a West End musical number, that's praise if you like West End musicals, I don't. I think having the lyrics follow the main theme like that was a bad idea, the main theme echoing below the lyrics set to their own tune and tempo would have added more depth, created something different and not so predictable.
Music is one of the most subjective things ever, didn't work for me but glad it's getting love from others
I made a thread about this a few weeks ago, I mentioned how the music reminded me alot of the Elder Scrolls series, Morrowind was probably the first game i had ever played where i actually noticed/apprciated the the backround tracks. Someone was quick to respond that the music in GW2 is done by the same guy who did the Elder scrolls Jeremy soule. I guess i have a ear for music and am a fan of jeremey soule but didn't even know it.

An amazing song :')
I wish there were more vocals in gw2 soundtracks but nevertheless they are still amazing especially with dedicated audio card!
According to https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/guild-wars-2-fear-not-this-night-song-now-available/ that song is the Pale Tree singing to her children, the sylvari.
"Fire is never a gentle master..."
This song is thousand light years ahead of "Lament of the Highbourne". It even have more power to bring the tears...

It would also suit Sylvari, I think.
For Norns, something like this would be great:

Oh, my country-woman. I am glad that they actually hired a true talented singer, unlike some "more popular" artist from my country.
