First picture is a castle near Chekka, Lebanon built sometime after the Roman era but before the Arabs conquered Lebanon.
Second one is in Southwestern France.
The Kingdom Promised by
Sing the songs of Solomon,
Hear the winds blow
Know that the time has come.
A Glorious citadel gone
In suffering, in shambles.
The exile of the citadel
Like the exodus.
From Egypt they left
From Languedoc we fled
Into the Promised Land
Into the mountains
Like the hilltop siege of Megiddo.
The months of snow pass,
We sing the songs of Carcassona
Hear the stones thunder
Know the walls hold.
Fleeting moments pass
Pray, pray, no
Salvation or deliverance
From the sword
From the aching bones
Into the paradise promised
Into the fortress alive, fighting
Faith replenishes
For even the Host claims
With its corrupted eyes
Faith. They do not see
Faith. Land and riches
Power and Truth only
Honour?
The claims only fool their beloved Pays
By the north, the army that is fed
Their hope is our souls
In their blind state saving us.
With our eyes the sun
In the dark night sky, we see
A reflection even in its absence
Lights up the sky
Our hope is life eternal
Truth, Truth
The word, in all
Humanity lives
The exiled citadel
In the mountains
In the fortress
Wait, wait, we do
For the steel
The promise, the Kingdom
False idols, false wars
For Humanity
Not humanity.
Snow covers us
Our bodies are left
Burnt, spread out
The claim is theirs
But our truth shall be truth
Life eternal shall be life anew.
