lyrics
Verso 1: (Oh-oh-oh, let's go!)
In the heart of Italy, where the story began,
From the Republic to Empire, the rise of a man,
Augustus on the throne, calling all the shots,
Pax Romana spreading peace across the plots.
Pré-refrão:
From the Tiber River, to the farthest land,
Roman roads and legions, took a mighty stand.
Senate and the people, together they rule,
A golden empire, no one’s a fool.
Refrão:
Rise, rise, rise, from Rome’s ancient stone,
Through wars and glory, they claim the throne.
Empire so strong, legends never fall,
Roman power, standing tall!
Verso 2:
With Trajan’s conquest, the borders expand,
In the East and West, they make their stand.
But cracks in the empire, division is near,
In 476, the end is here.
Ponte:
But wait! From the East, Byzantium rises,
Constantinople’s power, no more compromises.
Rome’s spirit lives, never to die,
In our hearts, we’ll keep Rome high!
Refrão:
Rise, rise, rise, from Rome’s ancient stone,
Through wars and glory, they claim the throne.
Empire so strong, legends never fall,
Roman power, standing tall!
Final:
Rome, Rome, forever in our dreams,
From Caesar’s rule to the empire’s beams,
Legacy lasting, forever it stays,
Rome's rise, throughout the days!
(Sound of trumpets) "I was the first, and my name echoes throughout the Empire.
I conquered the world, built Rome,
But in the end, history belongs to those who see glory in their hearts.
Rome will never fall... for it lives in all of you."
(The sound fades, leaving a reverberation)
