The Mausoleum at Halicarnassus: Narration lyrics
by Rick Wakeman
The Mausoleum at Halicarnassus was the most magnificent tomb ever constructed, in the 4th century B.C
Built by the ambitious King Mausollos as a monument to his power
The Mausoleum survived for many centuries before eventually falling into ruin in 1581
With the stones from the remains being used to build a fortress
