Hero

Confusion reigned Tiber the river god after the prayers of Aeneas

Appeared to him in a dream encouraging him and promising to assist

His ships upstream besides he advised the trojan hero to ally with

King Evander son of Mercury and therefore kin He was the leader of

Arcadians who lived in the place where foundations of Rome would

Stand pallanteum on the palantine hill so aeneas encountered evander

Who assured his support the king simple and noble told the trojan

Of his glorious and heroic past and the history of his land while touring

The landmarks of the future rome he recalled the golden age hercules

Victory over the half man monster cacus the figure of saturn that gave

Local law and order and the name of latium they became friends so

That the king turned his beloved son pallas over to aeneas to become a

Warrior suggested by evander and with the help of pallas aeneas allied

With the etruscan coalition that had risen up against mezentius the cruel

Tyrant of caere now expelled and ally of turnus in the meanwhile venus

Had appealed to her husband vulcan to make a suit of armour for aeneas

So she gave her son the divine gift a set of armour forged by Vulcan and

His cyclops the shield of which was decorated with scenes from future

Roman history and triumphs She told him not to fear war he would

Become of that age the hero

Yesterday the world only knew confusion and chaos

A new culture now is going to start

A new lord is sitting on the throne

The glory shining on

In your eyes there is the light of a god and a warrior

Yesterday brothers killed each other moved by hate

Now the same will fight under one crown

So the way is drawn the stars are clear and be like that

In your eyes there is the light of a god and a warrior

In your eyes there are the holy signs of the hero

Hear the roar of the streams

The storm of wind will sweep away everything

The masters watch over you

Blessing your soul by their shining eyes

In this silence my hero

Your word will be the guide

Towards the glorious

Awaited age of gold

In this darkness my hero

Your eyes will show the way

Beyond the clouds and shadows

Of this night
