Before the gates of ishtar

To the Gates of Ishtar Alexander rides
By his side his troops with Sarrisa aligned
Tales old of yore coming in his mind
The ruler of the world stands with all his pride

To the Gates of Ishtar Alexander rides
Praying to the Gods of Power and might

General, King, Emperor and God
Alexander's now king of all the world
His legend will be sung for centuries of old
Listen to his tales now, there's still more to be told

To the depths of Asia his army marches on
The Titans he must relock behind the bronze walls
And so did Hercules in an age now long gone
