Lyrics

Welcome to September 1519,
when a great quest for mankind begun,
Into the unknown!
Born out of a heart forged in dreams, of a man called Magellan!

…and there he sets sail,
with ships and men given to him by the Spanish Crown,
Determined to go where no one did before,
and meet his fate on the long course to the west!

The days count months on the deserted coasts,
now despair will pave the way,
To mutiny!
Blood, death, execution take their course,
what a price he has to pay!

On the seas of wrath and mischief, the Voyager will stand
For the fire of desire will be burning to the end!

Hardships come and hardships we sow,
the search for a safer passage will cost,
the “Santiago” is lost but still we have to carry on
… and pass through the straits that lead to the sea
where the waters seem to stand still,
and wildfires light up shores in the night…

So the bow turns now towards the western islands,
savage tribes must kneel to the cross,
the conquistadores
On the final stand in Mactan,
they shall suffer the greatest loss
(our light, our comfort, our guide…)

On the seas of wrath and mischief, the Voyager will stand
For the fire of desire will be burning …
Spread the word and all you behold, the Voyager still stands
For his legacy won’t perish, it will be cherished without end!
