Rise and go my noble king
Hasten to where angels sing
Upon the pallid eagle's wing
Beyond the doleful chapel's ring
Rise and go my noble king
Your next adventure lies in wait
A crusade for joy in place of hate
The storm of life doth now abate
So follow now your final fate
And to distant bliss now steal
Rise and go my noble king
Fly to fields so surreal
To eternal hills of teal
Where all mortal wounds will heal
Left behind just like the keel
That has been stranded on the shore
Rise and go my noble king
Forget thee now the clash of war
The bloodied clothing steel tore
The fallen soldiers on the floor
The everlasting strife of yore
The battle's unrelenting toll
Rise and go my noble king
Shut thy eyes tight and free thy soul
Break from this dirty, mundane hole
Take leave at last from your patrol
Fret not the flag upon the pole
For I shall raise our shining crest.
Rise and go my noble king
And I shall follow you to rest.
