Vain Glory Opera Lyrics


The prayers have been spoken,

may the Gods be on my side.

May they join my way

to bring me victory.

Seven at one stroke!

my triumph and my pride,

I will be history.

But behind my enemies eyes,

a soul in disguise

not only lies.

We live to fight

the hand of doom,

we got the pride

to strike a fool.

Vain glory be

my wicked guide!

We live to fight

the hand of doom,

we got the pride

to strike a fool.

Vain glory be

my wicked guide!

What's Hell without a paradise,

what's the night without a day

we would think it's bright?

What's a fall if we can't rise,

what's a hero at a play

without a fool to fight?

But behind my enemies eyes,

a soul in disguise

not only lies.

We live to fight

the hand of doom,

we got the pride

to strike a fool.

Vain glory be

my wicked guide!

We live to fight

the hand of doom,

we got the pride

to strike a fool.

Vain glory be

my wicked guide!
