The Banners Of Castile Lyrics - Arghoslent

Spurred on by hope of conquest 

Lusting for spice and gold 

Into the churning seas 

In the frail bark of tiny boats 

Embedded in the soil of every continent 

The bones of our ancestors lie 

Testifying to a higher mandate 

Sent down to warring soldiers 

In the shadows of our banners 

The indigenous bow to their masters 

O' mighty winds caress our sails 

And take this wrath away 

Men of awesome might 

Blue blood bred of steel 

On cloven hoofs they ride 

In the banners of Castile 

In the sign of the martyr's cross 

We torch the tropic fields 

To the windswept shores of gold 

With the banners of Castile
