Iskandar

Siege of Halicarnassus To wage war across the sea Then conquer all of Persia And slay all of his enemies The King from Macedonia and all Greece The armies pay homage on their knees Crossing the Tigris Was warned by the Chaldees You'll die in Euphrates Fulfilling all prophesies Poison brought in the hoove of a steed Mingled within his wine an evil deed His Funeral carriage Was pulled by one hundred horse His men honored his courage With a sarcophagus of gold The King from Macedonia and Greece The armies pay homage on their knees
