Excalibur [English translation]

It is great happiness, my noble father

To see you again, so full of life

Back to your noble lands

In front your proud companies

After those long years of war

The sky is witness that today

It is great joy for the entire city

To open its doors with great noise

Came

Misery and long nights

"God gave it to me"

"God took it back from me",

Are gone

Our brothers, our enemies

"God gave it to me"

"God took it back from me",

God kept you

May he be blessed

It took so many lands

To dig so many beds

That whole mountains

Weren't enough for us,

Because you needed so many stones

To make pretty churches

Where we sang your light

Where we felt so small.

In the forest of your banners

Blows a good wind full of life,

The sun burns your iron gloves

It's a grand day, this one,

But permit me my noble father

That I leave you to all of this

The road is long until the borders

I'll need to travel at night.

Came

Misery and long nights

"God gave it to me"

"God took it back from me",

Are gone

Our brothers, our enemies

"God gave it to me"

"God took it back from me",

God kept you

May he be blessed

I leave to carry in the ground

In the depths of our old country

Diane the sweet with light hair

That I cannot forget,

She'll sleep like in prayer

Of the most beautiful marble that we live

Under the most beautiful of lights

Of your pretty churches

Came

Misery and long nights

"God gave it to me"

"God took it back from me",

Are gone

Our brothers, our enemies

"God gave it to me"

"God took it back from me",

God kept you

May he be blessed

It took so many lands

To dig so many beds

That whole mountains

Weren't enough for us,

Because you needed so many stones

To make pretty churches

Where we sang your light

Where we felt so small.
