Thomas Borchert,Alexander Goebel when we are kings

Select language to translate this lyric

You must go on
For the world waits before you
Leave me to rest for a while
Look to your heart and remember our lessons
And when you think of me
Now I will leave one more treasure to you
Learn to live
And forgive
I will return
With an army to find you
Breaking this place stone by stone
Rubies and gold will bedazzle and blind you
Riches the world's never known
Rushing the dungeons with wealth and surpassed
When we are kings at last
Feed the poor, protect the weak
By the justice that we seek
Leave the past behind in mercy's name
When we are kings, we'll make the world as true as you
My friend, when we are kings
What sails we will reclaim
Sails made of silk
Bearing ships full of silver
Diamonds like stars in the skies
Mountains of gold
Full of emeralds and opals
More than a feast for the eyes
Suffer no more fortune's arrows and slings
Living like men
(Living like men)
Free once again
(Free once again)
Finally when we are kings!
