[Verse 1] Sangor woke beneath the ruined keep With a crown of iron and a thirst too deep Across the fields where the black wheat swayed The frightened town bowed down and paid
[Verse 2] The vampire lord held the valley tight He owned the morning, he swallowed the night Despicable peasants, hollow-eyed and grim Carried his banners and served him
[Chorus] But one brave rider came down from the stone A noble knight with a heart of his own He raised his blade where the dead men ran And called out Sangor, man against man
[Verse 3] His horse wore dust from the northern pass His shield bore a sun on a field of brass The village gates shook under marching feet While the knight rode on through the red wheat
[Bridge] No lord of darkness owns every soul No cruel hand can command the whole If fear is a chain, let courage be flame The valley remembered its forgotten name
[Chorus] Then one brave rider came down from the stone A noble knight with a heart of his own He raised his blade where the dead men ran And called out Sangor, man against man
[Outro] By dawn, the black keep opened wide The tyrant fell and the night withdrew its tide Sangor was gone, and the valley stood bright Saved by the blade of its noble knight
