Riqueza's Dream<br>
==Riqueza's Dream==


A highborn lady I was born and raised<br>
<song>
In Bastion's halls where I spent my days<br>
A highborn lady I was born and raised
In Bastion's halls where I spent my days


As I lay dreaming in the dead of night<br>
As I lay dreaming in the dead of night
The sky was split by a comet's flight<br>
The sky was split by a comet's flight


And I dreamed I travelled to a far country<br>
And I dreamed I travelled to a far country
Will you rise up my sisters, will you come with me?<br>
Will you rise up my sisters, will you come with me?


I dreamed I walked along the road outside<br>
I dreamed I walked along the road outside
And I left that city where I'll no more abide<br>
And I left that city where I'll no more abide


I dreamed I walked into the mountains high<br>
I dreamed I walked into the mountains high
Where I reached to heaven and I touched the sky<br>
Where I reached to heaven and I touched the sky


And I dreamed I travelled to a far country<br>
And I dreamed I travelled to a far country
Will you rise up my sisters, will you come with me?<br>
Will you rise up my sisters, will you come with me?


I dreamed I travelled to the barren plain<br>
I dreamed I travelled to the barren plain
Where the winds blew dry and I prayed for rain<br>
Where the winds blew dry and I prayed for rain


I dreamed I'd come at last to find the shore<br>
I dreamed I'd come at last to find the shore
And there I'd settle and I'd go no more<br>
And there I'd settle and I'd go no more


For I dreamed I travelled to a far country<br>
For I dreamed I travelled to a far country
Will you rise up my sisters, will you come with me?<br>
Will you rise up my sisters, will you come with me?


I dreamed a nation was my legacy<br>
I dreamed a nation was my legacy
For a freeborn people shall my children be<br>
For a freeborn people shall my children be


It may be a simple dream and nothing more<br>
It may be a simple dream and nothing more
Still I'll set my course to that distant shore<br>
Still I'll set my course to that distant shore


For I dreamed I travelled to a far country<br>
For I dreamed I travelled to a far country
Will you rise up my sisters, will you come with me?<br>
Will you rise up my sisters, will you come with me?

Riqueza's Dream

A highborn lady I was born and raised In Bastion's halls where I spent my days

As I lay dreaming in the dead of night The sky was split by a comet's flight

And I dreamed I travelled to a far country Will you rise up my sisters, will you come with me?

I dreamed I walked along the road outside And I left that city where I'll no more abide

I dreamed I walked into the mountains high Where I reached to heaven and I touched the sky

And I dreamed I travelled to a far country Will you rise up my sisters, will you come with me?

I dreamed I travelled to the barren plain Where the winds blew dry and I prayed for rain

I dreamed I'd come at last to find the shore And there I'd settle and I'd go no more

For I dreamed I travelled to a far country Will you rise up my sisters, will you come with me?

I dreamed a nation was my legacy For a freeborn people shall my children be

It may be a simple dream and nothing more Still I'll set my course to that distant shore

For I dreamed I travelled to a far country Will you rise up my sisters, will you come with me?
