lyrics

Over 80 years Christians had held Jerusalem
Then the infidels recaptured it again

And so the Pope proclaimed a new Crusade
With one hundred and fifty thousand men, Barbarossa tempted fate

Chorus:
So he started his march
On a torturous road
To free the Holy Land
In the name of the Lord
With the sign of the cross
Many battles were fought
In lands far away
So far away
Far away from his home
Fighting far away
Far away
Away from his home

As they reached the river Saleph, he crossed it on his horse
Falling down into the water, his heavy armour made him drown

Chorus:
And he started his march
On a torturous road
To free the Holy Land
In the name of the Lord
With the sign of the cross
Many battles were fought
In lands far away
So far away
Far away from his home
Dying far away
Far away
Buried far away from home
Buried far away from home
Buried far away from home
