Samurai

In a country where there were no wars, no castles to defend The king in all his wisdom was so loyal to the end But peace would never reign for long, to paint the story grey The mighty son of Genghis Khan was planning to invade Those Asian soldiers With awesome faces They planned on a victory There's a saying in the East The sword is your soul The sword is your soul Samurai Every able-bodied man in the land of the rising sun And the mighty Zen warrior with a sword in his hand Waiting for the invasion, waiting on thе shore Just along the horizon, one hundrеd thousand or more No fear of dying, no wish for power Remember the master's cry Put your formless form in flight Your sword is your soul Your sword is your soul Samurai The joining of weapon and man Samurai The joining of weapon and man Protecting his honour, perfecting his skill The way of the warrior is the strength of his will To be one with the universe, enlightenment to find On the medieval battleground of military mind Direct and fearless, instinctive action The pages of history Seven hundred years of ruling The sword is your soul The sword is your soul Samurai The joining of weapon and man Samurai The joining of weapon and man Long swords, short swords Live by the law, live by the sword The final hero stands alone He never will give in The mighty are themselves destroyed Like dust before the wind The sword is your soul The sword is your soul Samurai The joining of weapon and man Samurai The joining of weapon and man Samurai The joining of weapon and man Samurai The joining of weapon and man
