The clouds of steam hissed ominously as we travelled miles unknown The sun arises, shines her light Bathes the world in one last golden glow
Imprisoned and exiled, this horror will not abate Oh hamlet of Tobolsk, show mercy to our fate! The bleak winter wrath, like the war, prevails Oh sovereign, our tsar, why abdicate?
Glory days of long before Stay with me forevermore! Motherland that I adore 'Twill be no more
Yekaterinburg what horror does us await What purpose or prospect? Show mercy to our fate!
There's so much that I would give For another life to live
Slowly fades the night away But then! A voice whispers 'quickly, make haste! ' Could it be? A saviour has come!
Could our trials and our Tribulations fade like snow in the sacred sun?
Livadia in the springtime Those Crimean memories haunt me It's lost and gone For we are thousand miles from
The glory days of long before Stay with me forevermore! Motherland that I adore 'Twill be no more
Glory days of long before Stay with me forevermore! Motherland that I adore 'Twill be no more
This is a lie How can we trust 'Twill be no more
No! Have mercy on our souls No! Have mercy on the Romanov's reign No! Oh father in heaven I beg thee Have mercy! Let thy blessing be with us again!
No! Not our mother and father No! Not our dearest Alexei No! All hope is lost in this crimson hue Please I do not want to die!
No! I beg thee, withdraw thy hatred No! Let us sisters be! No! Have we not been loyal servants? Must we slaughtered be? I beg thee please, let me be! No!
Motherland, my Rodina Home of the Tsars May you guard and guide us to heaven to be by your side May you guard and guide us to heaven to be by your side
