Young Charlemagne: | |
Does a man have to fight all his life | |
Only in death to take flight to the skies | |
Warmongers vie to take my throne | |
No respect is ever shown | |
To Pope or Prince, nor man nor beast | |
And steal our cattle for to feast | |
No earthly princeling mine shall take | |
Or scand'lous idolatry so fake. | |
Charlemagne: | |
In borderland raids they came in their hordes | |
Ransacking villages, taking the spoils | |
With nothing to lose and possessions few | |
Bold, sturdy, fearless and cruel. | |
Young Charlemagne: | |
Defiant of baptism on pain of death | |
Tough measures call for me to be ruthless | |
To set an example to the rebels | |
Draconian for their worship of devils. | |
Charlemagne: | |
How many times did I venture forth | |
To the extreme wilderness of the North | |
To subdue those whose hatred was great | |
'Gainst churches and priests of our Christian state? | |
Four thousand men all dead in one day | |
They would not renounce their heathen ways | |
Thirty years of campaigning consumed | |
To subject those pagans to Christian rule. | |
Choir: | |
The Bloody Verdict of Verden. | |
Young Charlemagne: | |
River flowing red with the blood of 4000 men that I did behead. | |
Charlemagne: | |
I shed blood of Saxon men | |
I shed the blood of the Saxon men. | |
Young Charlemagne: | |
I shed the blood of the Saxon men. | |
Charlemagne: | |
I shed the blood of the Saxon men. | |
Young Charlemagne: | |
I shed it at Verden. | |
Charlemagne: | |

I shed the blood of 4000 Saxon men | |
I shed blood of Saxon men | |
I shed the blood of the Saxon men. | |
Young Charlemagne: | |
I shed the blood of the Saxon men. | |
Young Charlemagne: | |
Shall my realm be taken as I toil | |
To force others out of Frankish soil | |
And I return to learn that all is lost? | |
Yet my companions I trust, the sword and the cross. | |
Those good industrious Frankish folk, | |
Who toil our lands with oxen and yoke | |
Whilst Lombard, Bulgar and Moorish men | |
Dare to even glance at them. | |
Charlemagne: | |
Converting entire tribes by the sword | |
In the name of Jesus Christo our Lord | |
On that day in Verden no mercy given | |
Victory for the chosen people. | |
Young Charlemagne: | |
Weary grow I of this task which fell | |
'Pon the shoulders of a man who yearns to spend | |
But one hour with wife and child | |
To gaze 'pon faces innocent and mild. | |
Charlemagne: | |
Four thousand men all dead in one day | |
They would not renounce their heathen ways | |
Thirty years of campaigning consumed | |
To subject those pagans to Christian rule. | |
Choir: | |
To build a better world than ever has been seen. | |
Charlemagne and Young Charlemagne: | |
An empire made great by deeds of great Kings. | |
Charlemagne: | |
I shed blood of Saxon men | |
I shed the blood of the Saxon men. | |

I shed the blood of the Saxon men. | |
