A renaissance across the land
Throwing off the far-flung shackles
For new ones closer to home
A new white dawn
Grabbing the holy riches
Gold crosses forged to swords
War in all directions
An empire to rebuild
Tall ships grew and multiplied
New lands found and won
The power of word proliferates
Especially the words of one
All the globe within the globe
Sounds echo down to now
Expose the hearts of Kings and Queens
Commoner, thief and maid
