Riqueza's Dream
A highborn lady I was born and raised In Bastion's halls where I spent my days
Chorus: 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
As I lay dreaming in the dead of night The sky was split by a comet's flight
Chorus
And I dreamed I travelled to a far country Will you rise up my sisters, will you come with me?
Chorus
I dreamed I walked along the road outside And I left that city where I'll no more abide
Chorus
I dreamed I walked into the mountains high Where I reached to heaven and I touched the sky
Chorus
I dreamed I travelled to the barren plain Where the winds blew dry and I prayed for rain
Chorus
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
