I saddle my horse as fast as I can "The message is urgent, find the man!" The camp soon vanishes out of my sight As I rush my black steed into the night I am the messenger of fate I spur on my horse, the hour is late I am the herald, I am the sign My only enemy is time Hooves hit the rocky ground The clatter echoes all around Alone I ride, come what may The stars in the nightsky guide my way today On my arrival, will you welcome me? The sign is given, can't you see? All hail the Messenger Strong by heart, wind or rain Won't stop the Messenger The news are on the way The faith of man lies in my hands At last I fly through the gate Men, woman, children... "Out of my way!" Up the winding alley with fury I ride I jump off my horseback and push the doors aside All hail the Messenger Strong by heart, wind or rain Won't stop the Messenger The news are on their way You are the Messenger Strong by heart, wind or rain Won't stop the Messenger The news are on their way Fate now lies in your own hands
