[Music & lyrics: Kotipelto]



Born to rule as a future pharaoh

He learned how to play the game

Building monuments and temples

They were to spread his name



Ramses the Great inherited the throne

He wanted to restore Egypt's might

As a living god he would to be known

And he was leading his troops in to fight



A warrior whose name rings all around

A pharaoh who rules over the lands

A living god who wears a double crown

He is chosen by Re



When the nation was in jeopardy

As pirates were attacking from the south

He ambushed them, no one broke free

He proved himself to be a leader and he came forth



A warrior whose name rings all around

A pharaoh who rules over the lands

A living god who wears a double crown

He is chosen by Re



He reigned for over 6 decades

And his legend still lives on

We can see pictures on the walls

Hear about the battles he won



These were days of glory never seen before

And his people adored him even more



He made a pact with this enemy

And took a foreign princess as his wife

During his reign the nation grew

And he brought security and happiness into everybody's

life



A warrior whose name rings all around

A pharaoh who rules over the lands

A living god who wears a double crown

He is chosen by Re
