Hear me now, oh, thou bleak and unbearable world Thou art base and debauched as can be And a knight with his banners all bravely unfurled Now hurls down his gauntlet to thee Oh, I am I, Don Quixote, the Lord of La Mancha Destroyer of evil am I I will march to the sound of the trumpets of glory Forever to conquer or die Hear me heathens and wizards and serpents of sin All your dastardly doings are past For a holy endeavor is now to begin And virtue shall triumph at last
Oh, I am I, Don Quixote, the Lord of La Mancha My destiny calls and I go And the wild winds of fortune will carry me onward Oh, whither so ever they blow Whither so ever they blow, onward to glory I go Oh, I am I, Don Quixote, the Lord of La Mancha A name all the world soon will know And the wild winds of fortune will carry me onward Oh, whither so ever they blow Whither so ever they blow, onward to glory I go
