  • my son ask for thyself another
  • Kingdom for that wich I leave
  • Is too small for thee
  • (king philip of macedonia - 339 b.c.)
  • Near to the east
  • In a part of ancient greece
  • In an ancient land called macedonia
  • Was born a son
  • To philip of macedon
  • The legend his name was alexander
  • At the age of nineteen
  • He became the macedon king
  • And he swore to free all of asia minor
  • By the aegian sea
  • In 334 b.c.
  • He utterly beat the armies of persia
  • Alexander the great
  • His name struck fear into hearts of men
  • Alexander the great
  • Became a legend mongst mortal men
  • King darius the third
  • Defeated fled persia
  • The scythians fell by the river of jaxartes
  • Then egypt fell to the macedon king as well
  • And he founded the city called alexandria
  • By the tigris river
  • He met king darius again
  • And crushed him again at the battle of arbela
  • Entering babylon
  • And susa treasures he found
  • Took persepolis the capital of persia
  • Alexander the great
  • His name struck fear into hearts of men
  • Alexander the great
  • Became a God mongst mortal men
  • A phrygian king had bound a chariot yoke
  • And alexander cut the gordian knot
  • And the legend said that who untied the knot
  • He would become the master of asia
  • Helonism he spread far and wide
  • The macedonian learned mind
  • Their culture was a western way of life
  • He paved the way for christianity
  • Marching on marching on
  • The battle weary marching side by side
  • Alexanders army line by line
  • They wouldnt follow him to india
  • Tired of the combat, pain and the glory
  • Alexander the great
  • His name struck fear into hearts of men
  • Alexander the great
  • He died of fever in babylon
