Текст песни: Round Table + перевод

Seventeen feet across

Of the hardest oak to be found

Cut to the shape of the Sun and the Moon

Shine the color of ale

And the knights of the Living Cross

Gathered all around

Raise their goblets and drink a toast

To the search for the Holy Grail

There was one well known for charity

And whose voice was gruff

And one who wielded a deadly sword

With the finest lace on his cuff

There was talk about a fearful ghost

The bastard son if a King

Who died at the knee of his lordly host

You could hear his armor ring

Still hear his armor ring

Pure in heart and mind

The key to all you seek

Those were the words of the Mighty King

As he looked deep into their eyes

The best of you have wined and dined

You’re treacherous when you speak

You look for a way to seal your faith

But you find a compromise

You have raised your voice in vanity

You have turned your back on the poor

You have closed your heart to the written word

You defend the evil-doer

Now the time is come to clean your minds

If the good is to prevail

I offer this emerald to the one who finds

Our Saviour’s Holy Grail

Our Saviour’s Holy Grail

Banners in the sky, armor gleaming in the sun

The sounds of the horses, trumpets and drums

As they marched for the countryside

And the villagers they rode

Be were silent everyone

Frightened mothers closed their shades

And they made their daughters hide

And then they came upon a community

On a quiet Summer’s day

But these travelers to Jerusalem

Saw nothing in their way

And before the night fell on that town

They had crucified the Priest

They robbed and pillaged and burned it down

And kept headin' toward the East

They kept headin' toward the East

Came to Israel stood shimmering in the sand

Thirsty men could close their eyes

And see the milk and honey flow

The blood of the Infidel

Still fresh upon their hands

They knocked the ancient doorway down

Like the walls of a Jericho

And they thanked their Christianity

For the Temple they had seized

And though no one found the Holy Grail

The Mighty King was pleased

For he had changed the face of history

And a legend had begun

And little children were taught to see how

The Good Lord’s work is done

And little children were taught to see how

The Good Lord’s work is done

And little children were taught to see how

The Good Lord’s work is done

And little children were taught to see how

The Good Lord’s work is done
