Return to Wallachia Lyrics


The exile is over, time to regain

the Wallachian throne, and begin his 2nd reign.

The chains are broken, the shadows recede,

the impaler rises, to make these tyrants bleed.

The throne claimed by blood, like his destiny,

back from the exile to restore his legacy.

Riding through the mountains, to Wallachia, through the night,

the rightful ruler returns to claim his right.

His banner rises, the order of the dragon’s crest,

bringing new dawn to end all the unrest.

A new stronghold to answer the Ottoman threat,

surrounded by wolves with a bounty for his head.

But he comes with spears of steel, tearing banners down,

with Hungary's help, a new Wallachia is reborn.

Bringing discipline to Transylvanian Saxon towns

Nightmare to the Ottomans and the Boyars of the south

The rightful ruler is coming back.

The reign of the house of Drăculești.

Boyars in their gilded halls, beware!

A new shadow will bring them despair.

The Impaler walks the land again!

From the silence of the exile he returns.

The banners of Vladislav will burn.

The Impaler's name, a chilling breeze, across the valleys wide,

All the traitor boyars no longer have no place to hide,

Beneath a watchful sky.

Vlad the voivode is back!

In 1456 Vlad III had returned to Wallachia,

dethroned the false prince Vladislav and reclaimed his birthright.

Thus began the second reign of Vlad Tepes, whose name would echo through the ages as

a scourge unto his foes, a hammer of justice upon traitors,

and a bulwark against the Ottoman tide.
