Lyrics[]
Proud and so glorious
Standing before of us
Our swords will shine bright in the sky
When united we come
To the land of the sun
With the heart of a dragon we ride
We are flying on wings in winter sky
With fire burning deep inside
We are warriors of endless time forever and on
On wings of steel an ancient flight
We see the powers that unite
The gods will now send us a sign of battle once more
Through the valley we ride
Full of glory we soar
Where the fights will be raging
For now and for more
When united we come
And divided they fall
Tonight you will witness it all
Proud and so glorious
Standing before of us
Our swords will shine bright in the sky
When united we come
To the land of the sun
With the heart of a dragon we ride
A land unknown we come so far
We ride the night till morning star
When colors fade to black and white
Your eyes come to sight
With the vision of a great divide
You turn towards the other side
You think you run but you can't hide
The dead can not ride
Through the valley we ride
Full of glory we soar
Where the fights will be raging
For now and for more
When united we come
And divided they fall
Tonight you will witness it all
Proud and so glorious
Standing before of us
Our swords will shine bright in the sky
When united we come
To the land of the sun
With the heart of a dragon we ride
Over high seas and mountains
We fly to the heavens
On wings of a dragon tonight
Proud and so glorious
Standing before of us
Our swords will shine bright in the sky
Proud and so glorious
Standing before of us
Our swords will shine bright in the sky
When united we come
To the land of the sun
With the heart of a dragon
The heart of a dragon
The heart
Of a dragon we ride!
