歌词
[Verse 1]
Like a mirage riding on the desert sand
Like a vision floating with the desert winds
Know the secret of the ancient desert lands
You are the keeper of the mystery in your hands
[Verse 2]
Nomad—rider of the ancient east
Nomad—rider that men know the least
Nomad—where you come from no one knows
Nomad—where you go to no one tells
[Verse 3]
Undercover of the veil of your disguise
The men that fear you are the ones that you despise
No one's certain what your future will behold
You're a legend, your own story will be told
[Verse 4]
Nomad—rider of the ancient east
Nomad—rider that men know the least
Nomad—where you come from no one knows
Nomad—where you get to no one tells
[Verse 5]
No one dares to even look or glance your way
Your reputation goes before you, they all say
Like a spirit that can disappear at will
Many claim of things but no one's seen you kill
[Verse 6]
Nomad—you're the rider so mysterious
Nomad—you're the spirit that men fear in us
Nomad—you're the rider of the desert sands
No man's ever understood your genius
[Verse 7]
Those who see you in horizon desert sun
Those who fear your reputation hide or run
You send before you a mystique that's all your own
Your silhouette is like a statue carved in stone
[Verse 8]
Nomad—you're the rider so mysterious
Nomad—you're the spirit that men fear in us
Nomad—you're the rider of the desert sands
No man ever understood your genius
[Verse 9]
Legend has it that you speak an ancient tongue
But no one's spoke to you and lived to tell the tale
Some may say that you have killed a hundred men
Others say that you have died and live again
[Verse 10]
Nomad—you're the rider so mysterious
Nomad—you're the spirit that men fear in us
Nomad—you're the rider of the desert sands
No man ever understood your genius
