Timur lang

Horsed plunderer in central Asia,
crippled man
Self-declared offspring
of the great GENGHIS KHAN

Forty years to conquer
An empire for your grandeur
From Volga to Mediterranean see
From India to Syria

Tyrant fed by a supreme megalomania
Dream to kneel down the creation
Your reign of steel crushes the motion
You're the feared lord of Asia

Spreading disease on your way
Victims by millions
You set on fire one half of the world
To anchor your domination

Murder, plunder, fire, war
Violence, pestilence, ransom, rape

Slavery, blasphemy, atrocity
Are crowning your supremacy

Obsessed by the splendour of your reign
You spare the able carving your glory
A gigantic mausoleum carries
The ephemeral brutality of your name
