Many men are sent on a quest for the crown |
|
Searching all corners of the great land |
|
The minstrel tries to sing as before |
|
But, the jester, he laughs no more |
|
Many men are sent on a mission of hope |
|
Asking fortune-tellers and the wise men |
|
Where the royal crown is to be found |
|
Promising rewards in silver and gold and pounds |
|
When the king returns from the crusades |
|
There is no big welcome on the shore |
|
As he hear the news of the missing crown |
|
He shouts at the sky, "Have I ever let you down?" |
|
The elderly call it a sign |
|
As famine strikes the land |
|
Caught in the grip |
|
Of the reapers cold hand |
|
The mission must succeed |
|
Or the kingdom will fall |
|
With it falls the future of us all |

|
No crystal ball manage to find |
|
Guidance in their holy quest |
|
God is the last hope for a nation |
|
Of earth, stone and damnation |
|

|
Many years had passed since the king died |
|
When one day a young boy looked down into the moat |
|
Something was gleaming deep down |
|
What could it be if not the king's crown |
