to set sail from the center
of the earth, great city,
Imperium sine fine
Illyricum, Illyria!
oh ancient wooded glade
and karst mysterious!
oh green fabled shores...
Illyricum, Illyria!
where tight-packed trees
birth cool winds which whisper
truth primordial
Illyricum, Illyria,
land of hillside courts
of potent romance
where the bard sings still
I come to you
through sea and storm
Illyricum, Illyria!
