Alestorm - Magellan's Expedition

To lands unknown
We serve the Castillian throne, go

From proud Lusitanian shores we have voyaged
On the ultimate quest
Five ships under the banner of Spain
In the Emperor's name
On the deck of the Trinidad stands our captain, Fernão Magalhães
Steadfastly guiding us over the towering waves
Ya ha ha harr

The Atlantic behind us
Many of us will not return

To lands unknown
We serve the Castillian throne
With banners unfurled, we'll encircle the world
Our destiny written in stone
No fear of death
We'll fight to the very last breath
To sail through the strait, I know it's my fate
To chart a new course to the West, Victoria

Through mutinous storms we make haste on our voyage
Those traitors be damned
Patagonian giants awatch from the shores
Great legends of old
We sail through the straits of Tierra del Fuego
The islands of fire
An ocean of treasure awaits us far to the west
Ya ha ha harr

The Pacific before us
This is the point of no return

To lands unknown
We serve the Castillian throne
With banners unfurled, we'll encircle the world
Our destiny written in stone
No fear of death
We'll fight to the very last breath
To sail through the strait, I know it's my fate
To chart a new course to the West, Victoria

Here we stand
At the precipice of the unknown
With the endless ocean before us
Our time has come
Our fate has been sealed
This day we will quest into the heart of the setting sun

To lands unknown
We serve the Castillian throne
With banners unfurled, we'll encircle the world
Our destiny written in stone
No fear of death
We'll fight to the very last breath
To sail through the strait, I know it's my fate
To chart a new course to the West, Victoria

Spatium portibus fictus
Venenum coetus unum
Vox imperium capulus machina
Nitidissimus de algae

Spatium portibus fictus
Venenum coetus unum
Vox imperium capulus machina
Nitidissimus de omnium algae
Circumnavigandum infinita quest
