lyrics

Red Beard
(music: Martin Schnella | lyrics: Melanie Mau, Martin Schnella)

His empire reached from the Baltic Sea to Italy
The patron of the western world
He traveled all across the realm
To save his might by means of the princess

One of them called Henry The Lion
Once was his true companion
But he tried to take over and backstabbed him
And so the battle was lost

A long red beard
Crowned by the hand
The hand of god

He will walk the earth again
When the ravens stop circling the mountain
Bound a spell, every hundred years
He awakes on his ivory throne
The sleeping emperor

The lord was beside himself with rage
Henry The Lion was taken to trial
He paid for his betrayal and lost everything
And was banished to South England

A long red beard
Crowned by the hand
The hand of god

He will walk the earth again
When the ravens stop circling the mountain
Bound a spell, every hundred years
He awakes on his ivory throne
The sleeping emperor

The day will come
When the eagle conquers the mountain again
And the spell is broken
