"Magellan's Expedition" lyrics - ALESTORM
[Intro:]
To lands unknown
We serve the Castillian throne
Go!
From proud Lusitanian shores we have voyaged on the ultimate quest
Five ships under the banner of Spain, in the Emperor's name
On the deck of the Trinidad stands our captain, Fernao Magalhaes
Steadfastly guiding us over the towering waves, ya ha ha harr!
[Pre-Chorus 1:]
The Atlantic behind us
Many of us will not return
[Chorus:]
To lands unknown
We serve the Castillian throne
With banners unfurled, we'll encircle the world
Our destiny written in stone
No fear of death
We'll fight to the very last breath
To sail through the strait, I know it's my fate
To chart a new course to the West
Victoria!
Through mutinous storms we make haste on our voyage, those traitors be damned
Patagonian giants awatch from the shores, great legends of old
We sail through the straits of Tierra del Fuego, the islands of fire
An ocean of treasure awaits us far to the west, ya ha ha harr!
[Pre-Chorus 2:]
The Pacific before us
This is the point of no return
[Chorus:]
To lands unknown
We serve the Castillian throne
With banners unfurled, we'll encircle the world
Our destiny written in stone
No fear of death
We'll fight to the very last breath
To sail through the strait, I know it's my fate
To chart a new course to the West
Victoria!
[Bridge:]
Here we stand
At the precipice of the unknown
With the endless ocean before us
Your time has come
Your fate has been sealed
This day we will quest into the heart of the setting sun
[Chorus:]
To lands unknown
We serve the Castillian throne
With banners unfurled, we'll encircle the world
Our destiny written in stone
No fear of death
We'll fight to the very last breath
To sail through the strait, I know it's my fate
To chart a new course to the West
Victoria!
[Outro:]
Spatium portibus fictus
Venenum coetus unum
Vox imperium capulus machina
Nitidissimus de algae
Spatium portibus fictus
Venenum coetus unum
Vox imperium capulus machina
Nitidissimus de omnium algae
Circumnavigandum infinita quest
