Alexander The Great (356-323 BC) (1998 Digital Remaster) - Iron Maiden (铁娘子)[00:00:00]

Written by：Steve Harris[00:00:04]

Near to the east[00:01:56]

In a part of ancient Greece[00:01:57]

In an ancient land called Macedonia[00:01:59]

Was born a son[00:02:04]

To Philip of Macedon[00:02:06]

The legend his name was Alexander[00:02:08]

At the age of 19[00:02:13]

He became the Macedon king[00:02:14]

And he swore to free all of Asia minor[00:02:17]

By the Aegean sea[00:02:21]

In 334 BC[00:02:23]

He utterly beat the armies of Persia[00:02:25]

Alexander the great[00:02:30]

His name struck fear into hearts of men[00:02:34]

Alexander the great[00:02:38]

Became a legend mongst mortal men[00:02:42]

King Darius 3rd[00:03:02]

Defeated fled Persia[00:03:05]

The Scythians fell by the river Jaxartes[00:03:07]

Then Egypt fell to the Macedon king as well[00:03:12]

And he founded the city called Alexandria[00:03:15]

By the Tigris river[00:03:20]

He met king Darius again[00:03:22]

And crushed him again in the battle of Arbela[00:03:23]

Entering Babylon[00:03:28]

And Susa treasures he found[00:03:30]

Took Persepolis the capital of Persia[00:03:32]

Alexander the great[00:03:37]

His name struck fear into hearts of men[00:03:41]

Alexander the great[00:03:45]

Became a god amongst mortal men[00:03:49]

A Phrygian king had bound a chariot yoke[00:07:08]

And Alexander cut the Gordian knot[00:07:11]

And legend said that who untied the knot[00:07:13]

He would become the master of Asia[00:07:15]

Hellenism he spread far and wide[00:07:18]

The Macedonian learned mind[00:07:20]

Their culture was a western way of life[00:07:22]

He paved the way for Christianity[00:07:24]

Marching on marching on[00:07:26]

The battle weary marching side by side[00:07:34]

Alexander's army line by line[00:07:36]

They wouldn't follow him to India[00:07:39]

Tired of the combat pain and the glory[00:07:40]

Alexander the great[00:07:43]

His name struck fear into hearts of men[00:07:47]

Alexander the great[00:07:51]

He died of fever in Babylon[00:07:55]
