Build it, for they will come,

Some singing, most will hum,

Build it, and til’ it’s done, 

See it, your kingdom rise,

Hot, wet, cold, or dry,

Your palace a prize,

And a queen you’ll dine, 

From night to night, 

Don’t be of surprise,

Of past lone cries,

Therefore, build it,

And to you, they’ll run,

Shield it, for those who’ll come,

But first, yield this,

Your right to reign,

A year-ending gain,

Sugary cane,

Let’s get it,

For hilltops,

We came,
