Asking for the buried treasure, tons of gold for which they’d kill
Came an answer from the kingdom, with our brothers we will share
All the secrets of the mountain, all the riches buried there
CH
(repeat)
V3
Now the valley cried with anger
Mount your horses, draw your swords
And they killed the mountain people, so they won their just reward
Now they stood beside the treasure on the mountain dark and red
Turned the stone and looked beneath it
Peace on earth, was all it said
