Warrior Queen / del disco Lady Moon
Letra de Kellianna 
Música de Kellianna & Donna Horn 

I cannot remeber my name 
As I lay on the battlefield 
and hear the war drums 
I died here with honor today 
Warrior Queen with my sword by my side 

I can't remember the names of these men 
As they cover my body with furs 
Now I am floating up over the land 
Leaving my body below 

Now they will carry me home 
Through the mountains and groves 
to the land of my birth 
They will make me a funeral pyre 
where my bones turn to dust 
and my flesh turns to fire. 

Then to Valhalla I'll go 
To gaze on the face 
of my King and my sons 
There will be a feast laid for me 
Warrior Queen with a Valkyrie shield 

I watch them carry me over the lands 
On through the fields and the farms 
People are waiting to watch me pass by 
Look now our Queens is coming home 

Now they will carry me home 
Through the mountains and groves 
to the land of my birth 
they will make me a funeral pyre 
where my bones turn to dust 
and my flesh turns to fire 

A very long journey I've come 
to the lakes and the streams 
and the lands that I love 
Where as a child I roamed 
Warrior Queen at fourteen years old 

I watched them carry me over the lands 
On through the fields and the farms 
People were waiting to watch me pass by 
Look now our Queen has come home 

Now they have carried me home 
Through the mountains and groves 
to the land of my birth 
Set flame to my funeral pyre 
And my bones are now dust 
and my flesh gone to fire
