English
In every heart, there is a drum that beats
Steady and strong, it does not know defeat
I feel it pound, and know the sound
Of true beliefs
In every soul, there is a memory
Of standing tall, the proudest we could be
I cannot fall, for I recall
We were born in majesty

And when the long fight, has been fought and won
We'll stand in the sun

[Chorus]
And we will raise out hands
And we will touch the sky
Together we will dance in robes of gold
And we will leave the world remembering
When we were kings, when we were kings

Now is the time, here is the mountain top
When one man climbs, the rest are lifted up
With every step we're closer yet
To a higher destiny

And when we reach out to claim the thrown
Every man will know

[Chorus]

Do you remember
When we were kings
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee

And when the long fight, has been fought and won
We'll stand in the sun

[Chorus]
En cada corazón hay un tambor que suena.
Firme y fuerte, no conoce la derrota.
Lo siento palpitar y conozco el sonido.
De creencias verdaderas
En cada alma hay un recuerdo.
De estar erguidos, lo más orgullosos que podríamos estar
No puedo caer, porque recuerdo
Nacimos en majestad

Y cuando la larga lucha haya sido peleada y ganada
Nos pararemos al sol

[Coro]
Y levantaremos las manos
Y tocaremos el cielo
Juntos bailaremos con túnicas de oro
Y dejaremos el mundo recordando
Cuando éramos reyes, cuando éramos reyes

Ahora es el momento, aquí está la cima de la montaña.
Cuando un hombre sube, los demás se elevan.
Con cada paso estamos más cerca aún
A un destino superior

Y cuando nos acercamos para reclamar lo arrojado
Todo hombre sabrá

[Coro]

Te acuerdas
Cuando éramos reyes
Flotar como una mariposa picadura como una abeja
Flotar como una mariposa picadura como una abeja

Y cuando la larga lucha haya sido peleada y ganada
Nos pararemos al sol

[Coro]
