Saga Of Temudgin

"I had no place to hide from the thunder
So I wasn't afraid anymore".

The dust was swirling the steppe was restless
Piles of strange corpses could be seen
Under the snowdrifts
In the unseen space.

There where the shore was glaring
Where you can't see the road in darkness
Mongol dressed in silver furs has spoken:
"We will flood the earth with blood all the steppes and all the meadows".

He was riding hard crossing the landscape
Of the scorched earth
And everywhere in the steppes the name was resounding: the Great
Genghis Khan.

The dust was swirling the steppe was restless
The columns of warriors were marching afar
And the wind waving the banners
Whispered softly into their ears
That many years ago
On the grey-yellow shore of Onon.

"Lord of the Blue Sky Great Tengri!
I bow before you
Give me the strenght
Mongols need laws I will make them obey
Even if I have to kill half of them
Our laws will be simple
Don't kill women or children
Don't forget your debts
Fight enemies to the end
And never betray your Khan".

A forlorn child was standing
Over the body of his dead father
How a youth put into socks
Was lagging through the snow clad earth
About the nameless distant lake
Where Temudgin died and Genghis Khan was reborn
Genghis Genghis Genghis Khan.
