Lyrics: ‘The Magi’

Verse:
Out there in the distance
we see it’s glance
it keeps on shining
showing the way

Bridge:
it’s almost like we were dreaming
now it is all coming true
there is no way it is an illusion
we know
this is a sign from above

Chorus:
From the East we’re coming
to Bethlehem
we saw a bright star
upon this land

We went a long way
we followed the sign
they call us Magi
mystics we are

Verse:
as it was foretold
so shall it be done
the kings of all nations
will bow and kneel down

Bridge:
on our way back, we will hurry
in a dream we have been warned
jealous king Harod hatched a demonic plot
we better not be caught

Link:
descendants of Seth
the guardians of prophecy
monk-like we are
in silence we pray

with gold in our hands
myrrh and frankincense we come
homage we pay
the new born child

Signum Regis will Celebrate its 10 years anniversary In 2017 with an exclusive EP

“The next year, we will be celebrating the 10th anniversary of the founding of the band. In the beginning, it was a roller coaster ride and there were times, when we were not sure, if we can go on, but since then, many good things happened. Every new release was a bigger success than the previous one, the live shows improved and we feel strong and optimistic about the future.”

“As many of you know, we also won a prestigious band contest – Spark fresh blood 2015 with 400 attending bands. One of the prices, that we won were 1000 CDs manufactured in the best Czech printing press. We are lucky to be a signed band, but because of the price and that our 10th anniversary is coming up, we decided that we want to use this opportunity to record a very special EP to celebrate the anniversary. The EP will be released independently in a limited quantity and it will be our way of saying THANK YOU to all of our fans, who have been supporting us steadily.”

“The 6-track EP will be called “Decennium Primum” (meaning the 1st decade in Latin) and it will be exclusively available at the band’s website, live shows and nowhere else. Release date: early 2017″ Cover Artwork.

Upcoming Shows:
05-27-2017 – Teplice, Czech Republic
