Rome was built on seven hills and each hill has a name,

See if you can learn them, pretend that it’s a game.

The Quirinal, the Aventine, Viminal and the Esquiline,

Gaelin and the Palentine, please don’t forget the Capitoline.

Rome was built on Seven Hills and this begins the story of the Holy Roman Empire and her eternal glory.
