I've fashioned a sword, put it into a stone
I've sent it afloat, then the sea took it
In the perilous chapel it waits
For Arthur to raise it in front of you all
With this token of power the nation won't fall
It will shield you from evil and hate
The Dragon died on that night, pointing out his successor
The hidden son to all unknown, came to fight the agressor
The knights must be convinced
Challenging the prince
He'll bring you peace and victory, so why all the harshness
He'll unite the Kings and rule the land, bringing light after darkness
But nobles won't accept until he proves the fact
That the true King alone
Can draw the sword from the stone
Reaching out for the jewelled hilt, oh its burning like fire
To take the sword and claim their rights is their only desire
But failure shows them why
There's more than meets the eye
Arthur holds Excalibur, the invincible weapon
To fight the wrong and serve the right, I know he'll make it happen
This sword will make him stronger
Never to be conquered
Now the heir to the throne
Has drawn the sword from the stone
Now the King's unsurpassed as a leader of man
There's a scar from his past which he'll bear till the end
Like a curse it will last
His own blood wants revenge...
The lyrics THE SWORD IN THE STONE of KAYAK is also present in the album Merlin (1981)
Kayak è un gruppo musicale progressive rock olandese formatosi nel 1972 da Ton Scherpenzeel e Pim Koopman. Nel 1973 uscì il loro album di debutto "See See The Sun", che includeva 3 singoli di successo. Contro la loro volontà, furono immediatamente dichiarati «la nuova superband olandese» dalla stampa. La loro popolarità principale si concentrò nei Paesi Bassi, con il loro singolo più famoso (Ruthless Queen) che raggiunse il sesto posto nella classifica olandese a marzo 1979. Il gruppo si sciolse nel 1982 dopo aver pubblicato nove album. Tra i brani più rappresentativi: "See See The Sun", "Ruthless Queen", "Merlin".

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
