At the bottom of serpentine throne

The lords of the whole world went down on their knees

The power of the people of Earth was blooming


A destiny of the great empires was being decided

The mighty of the world were dazzled by power

The lords of the world were carrying out their duty


And when the hard times came

Hunger, plague and death were taking their toll

Powerlessness took their dream away


The great warriors celebrated honour

Traitors conspired betrayal

The deceitful engaged in intrigues

But today the remnants fall, splashed with blood

At the bottom of serpentine throne


U stóp wê¿owego tronu

Padali na kolana w³adcy ca³ego œwiata

Kwit³a potêga ludu ziemi

A gdy nasta³y z³e czasy

G³ód, zaraza i œmieræ zbiera³y swe ¿niwo
