[Verse 1]
My lord, word has come: the traitor is dead.
He confessed his treason and mourned his disgrace.
His precious life was taken as the spirits fled.
His final moment was noble — he died with grace.
[Chorus]
The king has set the path on this stormy day,
His son stands next in line unless the witches have their say.
A father and a son now claim the throne,
Macbeth’s dark thoughts awaken, his fate still unknown.
[Verse 2]
How can one know what lies in a man’s heart?
I trusted him completely to the very end.
Now noble Macbeth will assume his part,
Another honor for my noble friend.
[Chorus]
The king has set the path on this stormy day,
His son stands next in line unless the witches have their say.
A father and a son now claim the throne,
Macbeth’s dark thoughts awaken, his fate still unknown.
[Verse 3]
To serve you well is its own reward.
I only ask that what I give, you accept.
For loyalty is owed unto one’s lord,
And how could I sleep if I failed to protect?
[Chorus]
The king has set the path on this stormy day,
His son stands next in line unless the witches have their say.
A father and a son now claim the throne,
Macbeth’s dark thoughts awaken, his fate still unknown.
[Verse 4]
My sons, my kinsmen, and thanes bring me joy.
Hear now: my eldest son shall claim the line.
The Prince of Cumberland — my oldest boy.
Banquo, Macbeth, and Malcolm let your stars shine.
[Chorus]
The king has set the path on this stormy day,
His son stands next in line unless the witches have their say.
A father and a son now claim the throne,
Macbeth’s dark thoughts awaken, his fate still unknown.
[Bridge]
Now we ride to Macbeth’s castle while there is still light.
Take leave — and tell your lady we will be there tonight.
[Chorus]
The king has set the path on this stormy day,
His son stands next in line unless the witches have their say.
A father and a son now claim the throne,
Macbeth’s dark thoughts awaken, his fate still unknown.
