He looks for a sign while the city still slumbers And the ribbons and the river forever unroll
In his kingdom of gold his kingdom of gold
Kingdom of gold his kingdom of gold
Kingdom of gold
On the horizon an enemy haven
Sends traces of smoke high up into the sky
A pack of dog jackals and a rabble of ravens
Who'll come for his fortress his castle on high
In his kingdom of gold kingdom of gold
Kingdom of gold his kingdom of gold
Kingdom of gold
His axes and armour will conquer these devils
The turbulent raiders will falter and fall
Their leaders be taken
Their camps burned and levelled
They'll hang in the wind from his citadel walls
In his kingdom of gold kingdom of gold
Kingdom of gold kingdom of gold
Kingdom of gold
Kingdom of gold
Kingdom of gold
Kingdom of gold
