Seven Pillars of Wisdom (History Version)

作曲 : Chris Rörland/Joakim Brodén

作词 : Joakim Brodén

Far from home, and far away from the European fronts,

one man joins forces with an unlikely ally

with whom he conducts raid after raid,

and forces the enemy to redistribute his armies.

The sun burns the desert sands as the legend in Arabia grows.

The man is T.E. Lawrence,

and these are the Seven Pillars of Wisdom

Far from home, a man with a mission

In the heat of the glistening sun

In the heart of ancient tradition

This man's journey has only begun

Lead the charge

A raider has entered the battlefield

Sabotage

The game is about to unfold

As the darkness falls and Arabia calls

One man spreads his wings, as the battle begins

May the land lay claim on to Lawrence name

Seven pillars of wisdom lights the flame

A revolt to gain independence

Hide and seek, hunters hot on their trail

Joined their ranks, obtained their acceptance

Side by side raid the Ottoman rail

Lead the charge

Tafilah, Medina, Damascus calls

Sabotage

Demolish the bridges to dust

As the darkness falls and Arabia calls

One man spreads his wings, as the battle begins

May the land lay claim on to Lawrence name

Seven pillars of wisdom lights the flame

After the war has been won, deception or treason?

Who can tell?

Who stood to gain?

Who stood to lose?

Who did the dying?

Betrayal of trust from within or compelled?

The pillars of wisdom can tell

Back home where a new life awaits, whispers of past

The sands of Arabia calling

As the darkness falls and Arabia calls

One man spreads his wings, as the battle begins

May the land lay claim on to Lawrence name

Seven pillars of wisdom lights the flame

As the darkness falls and Arabia calls

One man spreads his wings, as the battle begins

May the land lay claim on to Lawrence's name

Seven pillars of wisdom lights the flame
