Sir Edward Elgar - Sea Pictures / The Music Makers

The Music Makers, op. 69: "With wonderful deathless ditties"

With wonderful deathless ditties
We build up the world's great cities,
And out of a fabulous story
We fashion an empire's glory:
One man with a dream, at pleasure,
Shall go forth and conquer a crown;
And three with a new song's measure
Can trample an empire down.
