Over deze songtekst:
Het lied gaat over Koning Richard I (1157 - 1198), die ook wel Richard Leeuwenhart werd genoemd, vanwege zijn uitmuntende militaire leiderschap. Hij stierf toen hij in Frankrijk vocht door een pijl die hem in zijn schouder trof. Het veroorzaakte infectie die leidde tot zijn dood. Hij werd opgevolgd door zijn broer Jan zonder Land.
Koning Richard is ook bekend van de Kruistochten.
Once we lived in harmony, but it seems so distance now Even though it wasn't long ago, we're all doomed to plague and death Working hard from dawn 'til dusk But that ain't enough for him Product of unholy love, untrue brother of a king Know that you'll fail, now hear us hail Your brother that you killed Hail to the king that brought peace to us all Rise from your grave, hear our call We'll not forget that you once saved our land Killed by your own brothers hand Pure evil and cruelty, the true nature of your soul Mercy and responsibility, words that you can't understand Your quest for total control will only end in your own fall We will fight for our freedom, and our right to live Do it your way, soon you will pay Debts with your own blood Hail to the king that brought peace to us all Rise from your grave, hear our call We'll not forget that you once saved our land Killed by your own brothers hand Stars so bright, dance in the night Day come soon, hide the moon Stars so bright dance in the night Day come soon, killing the moon Stars so bright, dance in the night Day come soon, hide the moon Stars so bright dance in the night Day come soon, killing the moon Morning breaks it's time to march, to the castle of betrayal Bring your sword, wield your armour, we won't take this anymore Kill the tyrant he must die, for his falseness and his crimes Strike him down, and slay his guards, and his ministers as well Done it your way, now you will pay Debts with your own blood Hail to the king that brought peace to us all Rise from your grave, hear our call We'll not forget that you once saved our land Killed by your own brothers hand Hail to the king
