Since Loreena has traveled throughout the entire world, and I believe she tends to write her lyrics based on folk stories, legends, and things she's seen and experience. I could not really guess what religious man she met, because I'm supposing this song was written after seeing a certain situation; a certain man.
I guess her meaning is of wonder and curiosity. Does the man find peace in his search for his god? Is he content? Were his questions answered? I'm guessing the "religion" she is somwhat refering to might be of oriental beliefs, because of the mention of bells and robes; however, I guess that could apply to many other priest wardrobe and utilities.
Anyways, wonderful song. It always gives me a sense of peace.
