King Rurik´s aria

The King announces: We cannot fight- because we are of the same blood! The secret of the mighty Jewel is unveiled.

Happiness meets those, who
have let peace in their lives.

The Jewel in my crown
is Peace, a beaut´ful Peace
It brings wealth and riches
elements of happiness
and
to my land
wealth
to all

No house
needs
building twice
no young men
bleed away their lives

Peace is the true richdom
It meets all people
and wins the traps of death (doom)

Peace is richdom
Peace is
the Mighty Jewel

It withstands evil forces
stops destruction
the Jewel
grants us wellbeing
and
provides for everyone

There´s no other need
to harbour any greed
when peace
lines our safes and boxes
with gold, with corn
and shows the merry way

Mighty Jewel
the greatest Gem
of all
is wealth
endless wealth
it brings
endless happiness

That Jewel
the Gem of my Crown
is Peace
is Peace
Ever Lasting Peace
