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>
'''Chorus:'''
The sky was split by a comet's flight<br>
My sisters, come along with me, a Highguard slave I'll not be
My sisters, come along with me, a Highguard slave I'll not be


And I dreamed I travelled to a far country<br>
As I lay dreaming in the dead of night
Will you rise up my sisters, will you come with me?<br>
The sky was split by a comet's flight


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


I dreamed I walked into the mountains high<br>
And I dreamed I travelled to a far country
Where I reached to heaven and I touched the sky<br>
Will you rise up my sisters, will you come with me?


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


I dreamed I travelled to the barren plain<br>
I dreamed I walked along the road outside
Where the winds blew dry and I prayed for rain<br>
And I left that city where I'll no more abide


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


For I dreamed I travelled to a far country<br>
I dreamed I walked into the mountains high
Will you rise up my sisters, will you come with me?<br>
Where I reached to heaven and I touched the sky


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


It may be a simple dream and nothing more<br>
I dreamed I travelled to the barren plain
Still I'll set my course to that distant shore<br>
Where the winds blew dry and I prayed for rain


For I dreamed I travelled to a far country<br>
Chorus
Will you rise up my sisters, will you come with me?<br>
 
I dreamed I'd come at last to find the shore
And there I'd settle and I'd go no more
 
Chorus
 
I dreamed a nation was my legacy
For a freeborn people shall my children be
 
Chorus
 
It may be a simple dream and nothing more
Still I'll set my course to that distant shore
 
Chorus
