From the Kingdom of Heaven: Director's Cut Dvd Version
Balian: We shall work.
Heinrich: Have you been at war?
Balian: On horse. And as an enginer also.
Heinrich: Against whom and for whom did you fight?
Balian: For one lord against another... on a point which cannot be remembered.
Heinrich: There's better game now, one god against another. The pay is proportionate.
Balian's Brother/Priest: I've been telling him that.
Heinrich: What does that say?
Balian: "What man is a man that does not make the world better?"
Godfrey: Leave me with this man.
Godfrey: God has made us man. We must suffer all. I also have lost. Some say Jerusalem is the very center of the world for asking forgiveness. For myself, I call it here. Now. I knew your namesake. I knew your mother. To be courteous, I should say that it was against her objections. But I was the lord's brother and she had no choice. But I did not force her. I hve forgiveness to ask of you. I am Godfrey, the Baron of Ibelin. I have onea hundred men at arms in Jerusalem. If you come with me, you will have a living... and... you will have my thanks. There it is.
Balian: Whoever you are, my lord... my place is here.
Godfrey: What made it your place is now dead. You will never see me again. If you want anything of me, take it now.
Balian: I want nothing.
Godfrey: I am sorry for your troubles. God protect you.
Godfrey: Wait here! Have you come to kill me? Even these days, it is not easy. Well?
Balian: I have done... murder.
Godfrey: Haven’t we all?
Balian: Is it true... that in Jerusalem I can erase my sins... and those of my wife? Is it true?
Godfrey: We can find out together. Show me your hand.
Godfrey's Nephew: Uncle.
Godfrey: Nephew.
Godfrey's Nephew: You have with you a man, Balian, who killed a priest, his brother. I’m charged by both my father and the Lord Bishop to bring him back.
Balian: What he says is true. They have the right to take me.
Heinrich: I say he is innocent of the charge. If you say he’s guilty, then we'll fight, and God will decide the truth of it.
Hospitaler: My German friend is a close student of the law.
Godfrey's Nephew: Just give him to me. I’ll fight you for something else. Uncle, he’s a murderer.
Godfrey: So am I. Whoever dies here today, you will certainly be among them.
Godfrey's Nephew: You are my uncle. I must give you the road. Hyah! Hyah!
Godfrey: It was not... that they had no right to take you. It was the way they asked.
Balian: They had the right to take me.
Godfrey: So do I.
Godfrey: Do you know... what lies in the Holy Land? A new world. A man who, in France, had not a house... is, in the Holy Land, the master of a city. He who was the master of a city, begs in the gutter. There, at the end of the world... you are not what you are born... but what you have it in yourself to be.
Balian: I hope to find forgiveness. That’s all I know.
Godfrey: Whatever your position, you are of my house... and that means you will serve the King of Jerusalem.
Balian: What could a king ask of a man like me?
Godfrey: A better world than has ever been seen. A kingdom of conscience. A kingdom of heaven. There is peace between Christian and Muslim. We live together. War between Saladin and the king, we try. Did you think that lay at the end of a Crusade? It does. My son, you are all that survives me. Do not disappoint me.
Squire: When we took the Holy Land, we took the Saracen trading ports. Italian ships carry silks and spices and pilgrims, if they have money. And Italy becmes rich as the Savior intended.
Balian: Who are those men?
Squire: Muslims. Saracens.
Balian: And they are allowed their prayers?
Squire: If they pay the tax. Subhena Rabi Alladin. Praise be to God. It is proper to praise him.
Balian: Sounds like our prayers.
Squire: It’s good.
Guy de Lusignan: When the king is dead... Jerusalem will be no place for friends of Muslims... or traitors to Christiandom... like your father. I am Guy de Lusignan. Remember that name. And me. Keep it.
Balian: My lord. How will you ride if you have no stick to beat the horse?
Squire: He will be king in Jerusalem one day.
Balian: Holy mother of God, pray for us... now and at the hour of our death.
Squire: Balian.
Muslim Servant: He says that is his horse!
Balian: Why would it be his horse?
Muslim Servant: Because it is on his land!
Balian: I took this horse from the sea.
Muslim Servant: (relays the message in Arabic to his master)
Muslim Master: (replies to his servant in Arabic)
Muslim Servant: He says you are a great liar... and he will fight you because you are a liar.
Balian: I have no desire to fight.
Muslim Servant: Than you must give him the horse.
Balian: No.
Balian: Fight me fairly!
Muslim Master: (says something to his servant in Arabic)
Muslim Servant: Why? Why should he? He is a knight.
Balian: And I am the Baron of Ibelin.
Muslim Servant: (relays the message in Arabic to his master)
Muslim Master: (replies to his servant in Arabic)
Muslim Servant: He says the Baron of Ibelin is old. He knew him at Damascus.
Balian: I am the new one.
Muslim Servant: Stop! (says something in Arabic) That's enough. Stop! (says something else in Arabic) Ibelin, that’s enough! Ibelin, no!
Balian: You have taken it very well that I have killed your master.
Muslim Servant: It was the end of his time. All is as God wills it. Now finish this.
Balian: Take me to Jerusalem.
Muslim Servant: Very good horse.
Balian: Take the horse... and be about your business.
Muslim Servant: This is your prize of battle. I am your prisoner, your slave should you wish it.
Balian: I have been a slave, or very near to one. I will never keep one, nor suffer one to be kept. Go.
Muslim Servant: The man you killed was a very great cavalir among the Muslims. His name was Mummad al Fais.
Balian: I will pray for him.
Muslim Servant: Your quality will be known among your enemies... before ever you meet them, my friend.
Balian: Old man, where is it that Christ was crucified?
Balian: God, what is it you want of me?
Balian: How can you be in hell, when you’re in my heart?
Almaric: You must have known him.
Balian: What?
Almaric: Since you carry Godfrey’s sword, you must have known him.
Balian: I did.
Almaric: A man my size?
Balian: Yes.
Almaric: And green eyes.
Balian: Blue.
Almaric: Come with us... my lord.
Servant: (speaking Arabic)
Balian: No. Give me the towel. Give me the towel.
Servant: (still speaking Arabic)
Balian: Give me the towel.
Servant: (still speaking Arabic)
Servant Girls: (giggling)
Balian: Stop. You’re hurting him. Whoa. Whoa.
Sibylla: Where’s your master?
Balian: I have none.
Sibylla: Give me some water. Thank you for the drink. If you happen to see Balian, the son of Godfrey... tell him that Sibylla called. (says something in Arabic to the horse)
Hospitaler: So, how find you Jerusalem?
Balian: God does not speak to me. Not even on the hill... where Christ died. I am outside God’s grace.
Hospitaler: I have not heard that.
Balian: At any rate, it seems… I have lost my religion.
Hospitaler: I put no stock in religion. By the word "religion"... I've seen the lunacy of fanatics of every denomination be called the will of God. I've seen too much religion in the eyes of too many murderers. Holiness... is in right action... and courage on behalf of those who cannot defend themselves. And goodness. What God desires is here and here. By what you decide to do every day, you will be a good man. Or not. Come.
Hospitaler: The king has made a peace with Saladin these past six years. He holds Jerusalem as a place of prayer for all faiths... as the Muslims did before we came. These men are Templars. They killed Arabs.
Balian: So they are dying... for what the Pope would command them to do.
Hospitaler: Yes. But not Christ, I think. Nor this king.
Hospitaler: My lord.
Tiberias: It’s true. You’re your father’s son. He was my friend. I am yours. Godfrey dead. It could have come at a better time. Come. It was shouted in the streets that you killed a great lord of Syria. Saladin himself sent word... that your fight did not breach the peace... that you had cause. What know you of Saladin?
Balian: That he is king of the Saracens... and that he surrounds this kingdom.
Tiberias: He has two hundred thousand men in Damascus alone. He could win a war if he goes for war... and he’s daily given cause for war by fanatics newly from Europe... by Templar bastards like Reynald de Chatillon. Here, from this room, I keep the peace, as far as it can be kept. But Saladin and the king between them... would make a better world.
Hospitaler: If it lives only for a while, Tiberas, it still has lived.
Tiberias: All right. What did your father tell you of your... obligations?
Balian: That I was to be a good knight.
Tiberias: I pray the world... and Jerusalem... can accomidate such a rarity... as a perfect knight. Have you dined?
Guy de Lusignan: You sit at my table?
Balian: Is it not the king’s table?
Guy de Lusignan: Is it? I have not seen a king at it for some years. I can not eat. I... I am finicky about company. In France, this could not inherit. But here there are no civilized rules. I have business in the east. My wife does not lament my absence. That is either the best of wives... or the very, very worst.
Balian: This morning I spoke without knowing who you were
Sibylla: I knew who you were. It’s unmistakeable. I loved your father... and I shall love you. Do you fear being with me?
Balian: No. And yes.
Sibylla: A woman in my place has two faces. One for the world... and one which she wears in private. With you I’ll be only Sibylla. Tiberias thinks me unpredictable. I am unpredictable. No. There.
King Baldwin IV: Come forward. I am glad to meet Godfrey’s son. He was one of my greatest teachers. He was there when, was playing with the other boys my arm was cut. And it was he, not my father’s physicians, who noticed that I felt no pain. He wept when he gave my father the news... that I am a leper. The Saracens say that this disease is God’s vengeance against the vanity of our kingdom. As wretched as I am... these Arabs believe that the chastisement that awaits me in hell is far more severe and lasting. If that’s true, I call it unfair. Come. Sit. Do you play?
Balian: No.
King Baldwin IV: The whole world is in chess. Any move can be the death of you. Do anything except remain where you started...and you can't be sure of your end. Were you sure of your end once?
Balian: I was.
King Baldwin IV: What was it?
Balian: To be buried a hundred yards from where I was born.
King Baldwin IV: And now?
Balian: Now I sit in Jerusalem and look upon a king.
King Baldwin IV: When I was sixteen I won a great victory. I felt in that moment, I would live to be a hundred. Now I know I shall not see thirty. None of us know our end, really... or what hand will guide us there. A king may move a man. A father may claim a son. That man can also move himself. And only then does that man truly begin his own game. Remember, how so ever you are played... or by whom, your soul is in your keeping alone... even though those who presume to play you be kings or men of power. When you stand before God, you cannot say, ‘But I was told by others to do thus’... or that virtue was not convient at the time. This will not suffice. Remember that.
Balian: I will
King Baldwin IV: You know what this is?
Balian: A fortification.
King Baldwin IV: What do you think of it? You disapprove. Well, how would you improve it?
Balian: A cross. Or better, a star, like this. That way no part of the fortress may be approached... without being exposed to fire from another part.
King Baldwin IV: Yes, I like this. Your walls are more difficult to address. Very good. You will go to your father’s house at Ibelin, your house now... and then from there you will protect the Pilgrim Road. Safeguard in particular the Jews and the Muslims. All are welcome in Jerusalem. Not only because it's expedient, but because it is right. Protect the helpless. And then maybe one day, when I am helpless..., you will come and protect me.
Balian: Quod sumus... hoc eritis. Such as we are, you will be.
Almaric: Your father was important. His lands were not.
Balian: That will suit me.
Almaric: My lord, you have a thousand acres... a hundred families. You have Christians, Jews, Muslims. You have fifty pairs of Oxen. This is a poor and dusty place.
Balian: What we do not have is water.
Balian: Right. Stone the walls. (Shouts in Arabic)
Balian: (Tells them to lift the gates in Arabic)
Sibylla: I’m on my way to Cana. Where Jesus changed water to wine. But a better trick would be to turn you to a nobleman.
Balian: That should be easy. In France a few yards of silk can make a nobleman.
Sibylla: I expect your hospitality.
Balian: It is given. Latif.
Servent: (says something in Arabic)
Sibylla: But this isn't adultery. It's washing. But if it were adultery... which it isn't... the Commandments are not for people like us. They are for the others.
Balian: Did they give you something to eat?
Sibylla: They said to wait until the master returned. My cook will prepare something while you wash.
Sibylla: What?
Balian: It seems years since I’ve seen a woman eat.
Sybila: Truly? I was watching you today. You’ve been given a patch of dirt, and it seems... you will build a new Jerusalem here.
Balian: It is my land. Who would I be if I did not try to make it better?
Sibylla: They try to be one... one heart... one morality. Their prophet says "Submit". Jesus says... "Decide".
Balian: Did you decide on Guy?
Sibylla: Guy was chosen by my mother. My first husband died before our son was born. I was only fifteen.
Balian: I've met your son.
Sibylla: I could stay here forever.
Balian: This house is yours.
Sibylla: Why do you think I’m here?
Balian: I know that Ibelin is not on the way to Cana.
Sibylla: What else do you know, my lord?
Balian: I know that you are a princess... and I am no lord.
Sibylla: You’re a Knight.
Balian: Neither earned nor proved.
Sibylla: I’m not here with you because I’m… I’m bored or wicked. I’m here because, because in the East... between one person and another... there is only light.
Sibylla: This is from France. I've never been there. This from my brother. This to remind us of death. And this... I put the day I saw you.
Balian: You lie.
Sibylla: What becomes of us?
Balian: The world will decide. The world always decides.
Almaric: My lord! The king is marching on Kerak.
Almaric: Saracen calvery. They’re coming to close Reynald in. These people are not safe outside the walls. Saladin will certainly come behind him.
Balian: Go into the fortress now.
Sibylla: (Says something in Arabic)
Sibylla's Escourt: Hyah! Hyah!
Balian: Hyah!
Balian's Knights: Hyah! Hyah! Hyah! Hyah!
Horseman: My lord Balian! My lord Balian! My lord Reynald prays you bring your force into Kerak.
Balian: Thank you, but no. If we do, these people will die. We’ll hold the Saracen calvery until the king arrives.
Horseman: So be it. Hyah!
Almaric: We can not attack that and live.
Balian: Are you with me?
Balian: Forward!
Balian: Divide!
Muslim Servant / Nasir: Your quality will be known among your enemies... before ever you meet them, my friend.
Balian: You were not that man’s servant.
Nasir: No. He was my servant.
Balian: What becomes of us?
Nasir: As you deserve. You reap what you sow. You have heard of this, no? Get up. You may go into Kerak... but you will die there. My master is here.
King Baldwin IV: If you continue like this... I shall have to find a use for you. If God can spare you, that is.
Balian: God does not know me.
King Baldwin IV: Yes, but I do.
Tiberias: (says something in Arabic to move the liter/carriage out). I need you in Jerusalem.
Sibylla: I must go. We can't meet in the city.
Balian: Then we will leave it.
Sibylla: And live how? Live where? Balian... my brother's dying. My son will be king and I his regent. I must rule for him. And not just in Jerusalem, but Acre...Ashkelon, Beirut.
Balian: And Guy?
King Baldwin IV: So, my friend, the time has come to conclude my affairs. If I leave the army with Guy, he will take power through my sister and make war on the Muslims. We have decided that you shall take command of the army of Jerusalem. Will you defend my nephew when he's king?
Balian: Whatever you ask, I will serve.
King Baldwin IV: No hear it all before you answer. Would you marry my sister Sibylla if she were free of Gyu de Lusignan?
Balian: And Guy?
Tiberias: He will be executed. Along with his knights who do not swear your alligence.
Balian: I cannot be the cause of that.
Tiberias: "Whatever you ask, I will serve?"
Balian: "A king may move a man," you said... "But the soul belongs to the man."
King Baldwin IV: Yes, I did.
Balian: You have my love... and my answer.
King Baldwin IV: Oh. So be it.
Tiberias: Why do you protect Guy, hmm? He’s a man who insults you, who hates you... who'd kill you himself if he had the chance. Fulfill the salvation of this kingdom. Would it be so hard... to marry Sibylla? Jerusalem has no need of a perfect knight.
Balian: No. It is a kingdom of conscience... or nothing.
Balian: Sibylla!
Sibylla: Who are you to refuse a king? I will have power, without Guy or with him. Guy is indebted to your say-so and my brother's, but it's mine.
Balian: Do you have any idea of Jerusalem except that it is yours? You will never hold it in peace as your brother did. It will be war.
Sibylla: My grandfather took Jerusalem in blood. I'll keep it the same way or anyway I can. I am what I am. I offer you that... and the world. You say no?
Balian: Do you think I’m like Guy? That I would sell my soul?
Sibylla: There’ll be a day... when you will wish you had done a little evil... to do a greater good.
Hospitaler: One may stare into the light until one becomes the light. I've done it many times.
Balian: There's your religion. One spark, a creosote bush. There's your Moses. I did not hear is speak.
Hospitaler: That does not mean that there is no God. Do you love her?
Balian: Yes.
Hospitaler: The heart will mend. Your duty is to the people of the city. I go to pray.
Balian: For what?
Hospitaler: For the strength to endure what is to come.
Balian: And what is to come?
Hospitaler: The reckoning is to come for what was done one hundred years before. The Muslims will never forget. Nor should they.
Balian: Is this why you came to the Holy Land?! Come on!!!
Guy de Lusignan: Now this assembly of Barons... and all Jerusalem is complete. There are those among you who may disagree with our succession... but it is war.
Soldiers: Aye!
Guy de Lusignan: And I am… … the king. We march at once. What say this council?
Council: Aye!
Balian: No. If you must have war, this army cannot move away from water. You have a chance to hold the city... but if you move out against Saladin... this army will be destroyed and the city left defenseless.
Guy: When I wish a blacksmith to advise me in war... I will tell him.
Balian: Saladin wants you to come out. He is waiting for you to make that mistake. He knows his man.
Random Council Member: We should meet the enemies of God!
Council: Aye!
Guy: And so we shall.
Tiberias: Then you do so without my knights
Guy: Then I will have the glory, Tiberias. You had yours years and years ago. It's time for mine.
Balian: Tiberias. When Saladin has finished with Guy, he will come. We must look to the defenses.
Tiberias: The boy's dead.
Balian: Guy.
Tiberias: No. The boy was leprous like his uncle. She gave him peace. She let him go... and Jerusalem along with him.
Balian: You go with the army?
Hospitaler: My order is with the army.
Balian: You go to certain death.
Hospitaler: All death is certain. I shall tell your father what I’ve seen you become.
Sibylla: When Saladin comes... we’re not defenseable. Save the people from what I have done.
Balian: I will.
Balian: Can you sense it?
Tiberias: There has been no messenger.
Tiberias: I've given Jerusalem my whole life. Everything. At first I thought we... were fighting for God. Then I realized we were fighting for wealth and land. I was ashamed.
Balian: Tiberias.
Tiberias: There is no more Jerusalem. I shall go to Cyprus. Will you come with me?
Balian: No.
Tiberias: You are your father’s son. Saladin must move his army from water to water. That gives you four days, maybe five. God be with you. He’s no longer with me.
Balian: Mark four hundred.
Almaric: Four hundred!
Flag Man: Four hundred!
Balian: They’re here.
Almaric: It is only one man.
Balian: No. They’re here.
Balian: This is the only section of the wall that they can attack... once they begin to bombard the walls. They will stop only to avoid hitting their own siege towers as they come in. We take the bombardment. When they cease firing, we fire.
Bishop: We must leave the city.
Balian: How exactly, my lord Bishop?
Bishop: The fastest horses from a lesser gate.
Balian: And the people?
Bishop: It is unfortuneate about the people, but it is God’s will.
Random Soldier: SILENCE!
Balian: It has fallen to us... to defend Jerusalem... and we have made our preparations as well as they can be made. None of us took this city from Muslims. No Muslim, of the great army now coming against us... was born when this city was lost. We fight over an offense we did not give... against those who were not alive to be offended. What is Jerusalem? Your holy places lie over the Jewish temple... that the Roman’s pulled down. The Muslim places of worship lie over yours. Which is more holy? The Wall? The Mosque? The Sepulcher? Who has claim? No one has claim. All have claim.
Bishop: That is blasphemy
Almaric: Be quiet.
Balian: We defend this city... not to protect these stones... but the people living within these walls.
Bishop: My lord. My lord, my lord. How are we to defend Jerusalem without knights? We have no knights!
Balian: Truly? What is your condition?
Servant Boy: I'm servant to the Patriarch.
Bishop: He’s, uh, one of my servants.
Balian: Is he? You were born a servant? Kneel. Every man at arms... or capable of bearing them... kneel! On your knees!!! Be without fear in the face of your enemies. Be brave and upright that God may love thee. Speak the truth even if it leads to your death. Safeguard the helpless. That is your oath. And that is so you remember it. Rise a knight. Rise a knight!!! Master Gravedigger.
Gravedigger: It is you.
Balian: Not what I was. Nor are you. Rise a knight.
Bishop: Who do you think you are? Wil you alter the world? Does making a man a knight make him a better fighter?
Balian: Yes.
Balian: Almaric... if you survive, Ibelin is yours. You are master of Ibelin. I confirm it. Rise a knight and Baron of Ibelin.
Almaric: But it is a poor and dusty place.
Muslim Soldier on Horseback: (shouting in Arabic) There can be no victory except through God.
Random Soldier: My lord?
Balian: No.
Muslim Soldier on Horseback: (shouting in Arabic) May God be with us.
Almaric: When will it begin?
Balian: Soon.
Balian: Get them to the walls!
Soldier: Water! Bring water!
Soldier: Get to the walls.
Balian: Push!
Soldier: Run!
Almaric: PUSH!
Balian: That was only the first day. There may be a hundred more.
Almaric: Saladin will show no mercy.
Balian: We must hold out... force him to offer terms.
Almaric: What terms?
Balian: We fight for the people, their safety and freedom.
Balian: Four hundred!
Soldier: Four hundred!
Another Soldier: Four hundred!
Balian: Fire!
Almaric: Fire!
Balian: Three hundred!
Soldier: Three hundred!
Almaric: Fire!
Soldier: Fire!
Balian: One-fifty!
Soldier: One-fifty!
Muslim Soldier: Line up!
Almaric: Fire!
Balian: Hold your fire! Hold!
Balian: Fire!!! Fire!!!
Balian: Oil! Now!!!
Balian: Fire!!!
Balian: AHHH! AH!
Balian: Fire!!!
Soldier: Fire!
Another Soldier: Fire!
Soldier: Now!
Bishop: When a body is burnt... it cannot be resurrected until Judgement Day.
Balian: If we do not burn these bodies... we will all be dead of disease in three days. God will understand, my lord. And if he doesn’t... then he is not God ,and we need not worry.
Balian: This is where we will make our stand. We must prepare.
Balian: When this wall comes down... there will be no quarter. If you throw down your arms... your families will die. We can break this army here. So I say let them come! Let them come! Come on! Come on! Come on!!!
Balian: Remember me in France, Master Gravedigger.
Servant Boy of the Patriarch: My lord!
Almaric: They will ask for terms. They must ask for terms.
Bishop: Convert to Islam. Repent later.
Balian: You’ve taught me a lot about religion, Your Eminence.
Saladin: Will you yield the city?
Balian: Before I lose it, I will burn it to the ground. Your holy places, ours. Every last thing in Jerusalem that drives me mad.
Saladin: I wonder if it would not be better if you did. You will destroy it?
Balain: Every stone. And every Christian Knight you kill will take ten Saracens with him. You will destroy your army here and never raise another. I swear to God to take this city will be the end of you.
Saladin: Your city is full of women and children. If my army will die... so will your city.
Balian: You offer terms. I ask none.
Saladin: I will give every soul safe conduct to Christian lands. Every soul. The women, the children, the old... and all your knights and soldiers and your queen. Your king, such as he is... I leave to you... and what God will make of him. No one will be harmed. I swear to God.
Balian: The Christians butchered every Muslim within the walls when they took this city.
Saladin: I am not those men. I am Saladin. Saladin.
Balian: Then under these terms, I surrender Jerusalem.
Saladin: Salaam alaikum.
Balian: And peace be with you. What is Jersualem worth?
Saladin: Nothing. Everything.
Balian: I have surrendered Jerusalem. All will be safely escourted to the sea. If this is the kingdom of heaven... let God do with it as he wills.
The Whole City: BALIAN! BALIAN!
Patriarch: Yes! Thanks to the Lord!
Balian: Your brother’s kingdom was here... and here. That kingdom can never be surrendered.
Sibylla: What should I do? I am still the queen of Acre, Ashkelon, Tripoli.
Balian: Decide not to be a queen... and I will come to you.
Guy de Lusignan: The perfect knight. Is that what you think you are, is it?
Balian: We are all of us what we do.
Guy de Lusignan: Do it.
Balian: When you rise again... if you rise... rise a knight.
Nasir: This horse... it is not a very good horse. I will not keep it.
Balian: Thank you.
Nasir: And if God does not love you... how could you have done all the things that you have done? Peace be upon you.
Balian: Alaikum salaam.
Balian: A queen never walks. And yet you are walking.
Crusader: We crusade to recover the kingdom of Jerusalem.
Balian: You go to where the men speak Italian... and then continue until they speak something else.
Richard the Lionheart: We come by this road to find Balian... who was defender of Jerusalem.
Balian: I am the blacksmith.
Richard the Lionheart: And I am the king of England.
Balian: I am the blacksmith.
from the Kingdom of Heaven Deleted/Altered Scenes
Godfrey: Do you know... what lies in the Holy Land? Not what the fanatics say, but... what does lie there? A new world. A man who, in France, had not a house... is, in the Holy Land, the master of a city. He who was the master of a city, begs in the gutter. There, at the end of the world... you are not what you are born... but what you have it in yourself to be.
Balian: I hope to find forgiveness there. That’s all I know.
Godfrey: Whatever your position, and that I will decide, you are of my house... and that means you will serve the King of Jerusalem.
Balian: What could a king ask of a man like me?
Godfrey: This king... A better world than has ever been seen. A kingdom of conscience. A kingdom of heaven. Peace instead of war. Love instead of hate. Did you think that lay at the end of a Crusade? It does. There is peace between Christian and Muslim. We live together. War between Saladin and the king, we try. You will serve the peace and the king. Swear.
Balian: I swear.
Godfrey: Good. Get me one of those. (talking about an Orange. He peels it and puts a piece of it against Balian's lips. Balian eats the orange piece, his first taste of orange ever.) That is the East. You are all that survives me. Do not disappoint me.
Balian: How can you be in hell, when you’re in my heart? Goodbye...
Balian: The brand has been cut off. (talking about a dying horse) Kill it.
Red Haired Knight: There are more bodies here!
Almaric: Reynold did this.
Sibylla: Not alone, likely. Not alone.
Balian: I'm going to Kerak.
Almaric: My lord.
Balian: Yes.
Almaric: It is enough that you ask men at arms to push tons a day. It is worse to ask them to do it all day and night.
Balian: We have a dying king. We need stronger walls. As for the men at arms, I want them to all learn a trade.
Almaric: A trade?
Balian: A trade. Shoemaker, blacksmith, carpenter, conjoiner, baker...
Almaric: It is beneath their condition.
Balian: The first man to bring me a decent pair of shoes, I will make a knight.
Almaric: Jesus was a tradesman of course. Nothing could be more noble.
Red Haired Knight: My lord.
Balian: Where is the queen of Jerusalem?
Patriarch: Guy is head of the army. The husband has rights, even over a queen.
Balian: Are you a man, my lord Bishop, who looks to his own interests? You have that reputation. If you obstruct me I will kill you. There it is.
Patriarch: Well, then. There it is. Do it. (fight breaks out between Balian's Knight and the remainning Templars)
Sibylla: Do you know what I have done?
Balian: And why. Guy will lose the army. I must prepare to defend the city.
Sibylla: When Saladin comes... we’re not defenseable. Save the people from what I have done.
Balian: I will.
Sibylla: If... If you wanted the world more... I would want you less.
from the Theatrical Version of Kingdom of Heaven.
German: What does that say?
Balian: What man is a man that does not make the world better?
Godfrey: Leave me with this man.
Godfrey: I am Godfrey, the Baron of Ibelin. I have a hundred men at arms in Jerusalem. If you come with me you will have a living and you will have my thanks. There it is.
Balian: Whoever you are, my lord. My place is here.
Godfrey: What made it your place is now dead. You will never see me again. If you want anything of me, take it now.
Balian: I want nothing.
Godfrey: Wait here! If you’ve come to kill me, even these days it is not easy. Well?
Balian: I’ve done, murder.
Godfrey: Haven’t we all.
Balian: Is it true that in Jerusalem I can erase my sins, and those of my wife? Is it true?
Godfrey: We can find out together. Show me your hand.
Police-like Man: You have with you a man, Balian. He killed a priest. I’m charged by the Lord Bishop to bring him back.
Balian: What he says is true. They have the right to take me.
German: I say he’s innocent of the charge. If you say he’s guilty, there’ll be a fight. God will decide the truth of it.
Hospitaler: Our German friend is a close student of the law.
Police-like Man: Just give him to me. I’ll fight you for something else. He’s a murderer.
Godfrey: So am I. Whoever dies here today, you will certainly be among them.
Police-like Man: You’re a lord. I must give you the road.
Godfrey: It was not that they had no right to take you. It was the way they asked.
Balian: They had the right to take me.
Godfrey: So do I.
Godfrey: Do you know what lies in the Holy Land? A new world. A man who in France had not a house is, in the Holy Land, the master of the city. He who was the master of the city, begs in the gutter. There, at the end of the world, you are not what you are born but what you have it in yourself to be.
Balian: Who are those men?
Squire: It’s good.
Muslim Servant: He says that is his horse.
Muslim Servant: It’s a very good horse.
Balian: Old man, where is it that Christ was crucified?
Balian: God, what is it you want of me?
Bald Knight: You must have known him.
Balian: Stop! You’re hurting him. Whoa… Whoa…
Hospitaler: So, how find you Jerusalem?
Hospitaler: The king has made a peace with Saladin these past six years and holds Jerusalem as a place of prayer for all faiths, as the Muslims did before we came. These men are Templars. They killed Arabs.
Hospitaler: My lord.
Guy de Lusignan: You sit at my table
Balian: This morning, I spoke without knowing who you were
King Baldwin IV: Come forward. I am glad to meet Godfrey’s son. He was one of my greatest teachers. He was there when I was playing with the other boys and my arm was cut. It was he, not my father’s physicians who noticed that I felt no pain. He wept when he gave my father the news that I am a leper. The {Sharasins} say that this disease is God’s vengeance against the vanity of our kingdom. As wretched as I am, these Arabs believe that the chastisement that awaits me in Hell is far more severe and lasting. If that’s true, I call it unfair. Come. Sit. When I was sixteen I won a great victory. I felt in that moment, I would live to be a hundred. Now I know I shall not see thirty. You see, none of us choose our end, really. A king may move a man. A father may claim a son. But remember that even when those who move you be kings or men of power, your soul is in your keeping alone. When you stand before God, you cannot say, ‘But I was told by others to do thus.’ Or that ‘Virtue was no convient at the time.’ This will not suffice. Remember that.
Bald Knight: Your father was important. His lands were not.
Bald Knight: My lord you have a thousand acres. A hundred tenants. You have Christians, Jews, Muslims. You have fifty pairs of Oxen.
Balian: Right. Start on the walls. (says something in another language…)
Sibylla: I’m on my way to {Cana}. Where Jesus changed water to wine. But a better trick would be to turn you into a nobleman.
Sibylla: What?
Sibylla: They try to be one. One heart. One morality. Their prophet says submit. Jesus says, decide.
Sibylla: Why do you think I’m here?
Sibylla: What becomes of us?
Bald Knight: There’s {Sharasin} calvery. They’re coming to close Reynald in. These people are not safe outside the walls. Saladin will certainly come behind.
Balian: Are you with me?
Balian: [Line!]
Muslim Servant / Nasir: Your quality will be known among your enemies, before ever you meet them, my friend.
King Baldwin IV: If you continue like this. I shall have to find a use for you, if God can spare you that is.
King Baldwin IV: So, my friend, the time has come to conclude my affairs. We have decided that you should take control of the army of Jerusalem. If I leave the army with Guy, he will take power through my sister and make war on the Muslims.
Balian: Sibylla!
Balian: This is why you came to the Holy Land?! Come on!!!
Guy de Lusignan: Now this assembly of Barons and all Jerusalem is complete. There are those among you who may disagree with our succession, but it is war and I… am… … the king… We march at once. What say this council?
Balian: Tiberias. When Saladin is finished with Guy he will come. We must look to the defenses.
Sibylla: When Saladin comes, we’re not defenseable… save the people from what I have done.
Balian: Can you sense it?
Tiberias: I have given Jerusalem my whole life… Everything… At first I thought we were fighting for God, then I realized we were fighting for wealth and land. I was ashamed.
Balian: Mark four hundred.
Balian: This is the only section of the wall that they can attack. Once they begin to bombard the walls they will stop only to avoid hitting their own siege towers as they come in. We take the bombardment. When they cease firing, we fire.
Bishop: My lord! My lord, my lord. How are we to defend Jerusalem without knights? We have no knights.
Random Soldier: My lord?
Balian: TO THE WALLS!
Balian: That was only the first day. There may be a hundred more.
Balian: Four hundred!
Soldier: Move your hand!
Bishop: When a body is burnt it cannot be resurrected until judgement day
Balian: This is where we will make our stand. We must prepare.
Balian: When this wall comes down, there will be no quarter. If you throw down your arms, your families will die. We can break this army here. So I say, let them come. Let them come! Come on! COME ON! COME ON!!!
Bald Knight: They will ask for terms. They must ask for terms.
Balian: I have surrendered Jeruslame. All will be safely escourted to the sea. If this is the kingdom of heaven, let God do with it as he wills.
Balian: Your brother’s kingdom was here and here. That kingdom can never be surrendered.
Nasir: This horse. It is not a very good horse. I will not keep it.
Balian: A queen never walks. And yet you are walking.
Crusader: We crusade to recover the kingdom of Jerusalem.
From Various TV Spots
Balian: We defend all!
Balian: To take this city will be the end of you.
Sybilla: Who are you to refuse a king?
Balian: What man, is a man, who does not make the world better?
Balian: God does not speak to me.
From IFILM Snippets
Balian: Get them to the walls!
Balian: PUSH!
Balian: FIRE!
Balian: Are you wth me?
Balian: On your knees!

Orlando: Hey, I'm Orlando Bloom and I'm proud to present to you some never before seen exclusive footage from my upcoming film, Kingdom of Heaven, directed by the amazing Ridley Scott.
Tiberias: Your father's charged you with your task. The king needs you.
Sybilla: Do you fear being with me?
Balian: I must prepare to defend the city.
From the Extended Trailer
Godfrey: I am Godfrey, the Baron of Ibelin. You, are my son. I have a hundred men at arms in Jerusalem. Will you come with me?
King Baldwin IV: You will protect the pilgrim road. All are welcome in Jerusalem, not only because it is expediant, but because it is right.
Sibylla: I was watching you today.
Balian: They're here.
Bishop: My lord, how are we to defend Jerusalem without knights.
Balian: It is fallen to us to defend this city. Not to protect these stones, but the people living within these walls
Balian: FORWARD!
Balian: What is Jerusalem worth?
From a KOH Entertainment Segment
Tiberias: What did your father tell you of your... obligation?
From the Theatrical Trailer
Balian: Be without fear, in the face of your enemies. Safeguard the helpless, even if it leads to your death. That is your oath. Rise a knight! Rise, a knight!
Sibylla: What becomes of us?
Sibylla: I offer you the world.
Hospitaler: I go to pray.
Balian: I hope to find forgiveness. That’s all I know.
Godfrey: Whatever your deccission, you are of my house. And that means you will serve the King of Jerusalem.
Balian: What could a king ask of a man like me?
Godfrey: A better world than has ever been seen. A kingdom of conscience. A kingdom of heaven. There is peace between Christian and Muslim. We live together. War between Saladin and the king
Squire: Muslims. {Sarasins}.
Balian: And they are allowed their prayers?
Squire: If they pay the tax. (says something in Islamic) Praise be to God. It is proper to praise him.
Balian: Sounds like our prayers.
Guy de Lusignan: When the king is dead, Jerusalem will be no place for friends of Muslims or traitors to Christiandom, like your father. I am Guy de Lusignan. Remember that name, and me. Keep it.
Balian: My lord! How will you ride if you have no stick to beat the horse?
Squire: He will be king in Jerusalem one day.
Balian: Why would it be his horse?
Muslim Servant: Because it is on his land.
Balian: I took this horse from the sea.
Muslim Servant: (relays the message in Islamic to his master)
Muslim Master: (replies to his servant in Islamic)
Muslim Servant: He says you are a great liar. And he will fight you because you are a liar.
Balian: I have no desire to fight.
Muslim Servant: Than you must give him the horse.
Balian: No.
Balian: Fight me fairly!
Muslim Master: (says something to his servant in Islamic)
Muslim Servant: Why? Why should he? He is a knight.
Balian: And I am the Baron of Ibelin.
Muslim Servant: (relays the message in Islamic to his master)
Muslim Master: (replies to his servant in Islamic)
Muslim Servant: He says the Baron of Ibelin is old. He knew him at Damascus.
Balian: I am the new one.
Muslim Servant: Stop! (says stop in Islamic) Stop! Ibelin, that’s enough! Ibelin!
Balian: You’re taking it very well that I have killed your master.
Muslim Servant: It was the end of his time. All is as god wills it. Now, finish this.
Balian: Take me to Jerusalem.
Balian: Take the horse and be about your business.
Muslim Servant: This is your prize of battle. I am your prisoner. Your slave should you wish it.
Balian: I have been a slave, or very near to one. I will never keep a slave nor suffer one to be kept. Go.
Muslim Servant: The man you killed was a very great chavalir among the Muslims. His name was {Mohammed Alvice}.
Balian: I will pray for him.
Muslim Servant: Your quality will be known among your enemies before ever you meet them, my friend.
Balian: How can you be in Hell, when you’re in my heart?
Balian: What?
Bald Knight: Since you carry Godfrey’s sword, you must have known him.
Balian: I did.
Bald Knight: A man my size?
Balian: Yes.
Bald Knight: And green eyes?
Balian: Blue.
Bald Knight: Come with us, my lord.
Sibylla: Where’s your master.
Balian: I have none.
Sibylla: Give me some water. Thank you for the drink. If you happen to see Balian, the son of Godfrey, tell him that Sibylla called. (says something in Islamic… I think…)
Balian: God does not speak to me. Not even on the hill where Christ died. I am outside God’s grace.
Hospitaler: I have no heard that.
Balian: At any rate… it seems… I’ve lost my religion.
Hospitaler: I put no stock in religion. Find the word religion and I see the lunacy of fanatics of every denomination recall the will of God. Holiness is in right action and courage on behalf of those who cannot defend themselves. And goodness. What God desires is here and here. And what you decide to do everyday, you will be a good man… Or not. Come.
Balian: So they are dying for what the Pope would command them to do.
Hospitaler: Yes, but not Christ, I think… nor this king.
Tiberias: It’s true. You’re your father’s son. He was my friend, I am yours. Godfrey dead… it could have come at a better time. But… It was shouted in the streets that you killed a great lord of Syria. Saladin himself sent word that your fight did not breach the peace. That you had call. What know you of Saladin?
Balian: That he is king of the {Sharasins} and that he surrounds this kingdom.
Tiberias: He has two hundred thousand men in Damascus alone. He can win a war if he goes for war. And he’s daily getting cause for war by fanatics newly from Europe. Like Templar bastards like Reynald de Chatillon. Here from this room I keep the peace, as far as it can be kept. But, Saladin and the king between them, would make a better world.
Hospitaler: If it lives only for a while, Tiberas, it still has lived.
Tiberias: Ah. What did your father tell you of your obligations?
Balian: That I was to be a good knight.
Tiberias: I pray the world and Jerusalem can accomidate such a rarity as a perfect knight. Have you dined?
Balian: Is it not the king’s table?
Guy: Is it? I have not seen the king at it for some years. I… I can not eat. I am finicky about company… In France, this could not inherit. But here, there are no civilized rules.
Sibylla: I knew who you were. It’s unmistakeable. I loved your father and I shall love you. Do you fear being with me?
Balian: No, and yes.
Sibylla: A woman in my place has two faces. One for the world and one which she wears in private. With you I’ll be only Sibylla. Tiberas thinks me unpredictable. I am unpredictable. No. There.
Balian: I will
King Baldwin IV: Then go now to your father’s house at Ibelin and from there protect the Pilgrim Road. Protect the helpless and then perhaps, one day, when I am helpless, you will come and protect me.
Balian: It will suit me.
Balian: What we do not have, is water.
Balian: (tells them to lift the gates in another language).
Balian: That should be easy. In France a few yards of silk can make a nobleman.
Sibylla: I expect your hospitality.
Balian: It is given.
Balian: It seems years since I’ve seen a woman eat.
Sybila: Truly? I was watching you today. You’ve been given a patch of dirt and it seems you will build a new Jerusalem here.
Balian: It is my land. Who would I be if I did not try to make it better?
Balian: Did you decide on Guy?
Sibylla: Guy was chosen by my mother. I was fifteen at the time.
Balian: I know that Ibelin is not on the way to {Cana}.
Sibylla: What else do you know, my lord?
Balian: I know that you are a princess and I am no lord.
Sibylla: You’re a Knight.
Balian: Neither earned nor proved.
Sibylla: I’m not here with you because I’m… I’m bored or wicked. I’m here because, because in the east between one person and another, there is only light.
Balian: The world will decide. The world always decides.
Bald Man: My lord, the king is marching on Kerak.
Balian: Go into the fortress now.
Sibylla: (Says something in another language)
Horseman: My lord, Balian! My lord, Balian! My lord Reynald prays you bring your force into Kerak.
Balian: Thank you, but no. If we do, these people will die. We’ll hold the {Sharasins} calvery until the king arrives.
Horseman: So be it.
Bald Knight: We can not attack that, and live.
Balian: [Divide!]
Balian: You were not that man’s servant.
Nasir: No, he was my servant.
Balian: What becomes of us?
Nasir: As you desire. You reap what you sow. You have heard of this, no? Get up. You may go into Kerak, but you will die there. My master is here.
Balian: God does not know me.
King Baldwin IV: Yes, but I do.
Tiberias: (says something in Islamic to move the liter/carriage out). I need you, in Jerusalem.
Balian: Whatever you ask, I will serve.
King Baldwin IV: No hear it all before you answer. Would you marry my sister Sibylla if she were free of Gyu de Lusignan.
Balian: And Guy?
Tiberias: He would be executed. Along with his knights who do not sway alligence.
Balian: I cannot be the cause of that.
Tiberias: Whatever you ask, I will serve?
Balian: A king may move a man, you said. But the soul belongs to the man.
King Baldwin IV: Yes, I did.
Balian: You have my love, and my answer.
King Baldwin IV: So be it.
Tiberias: Why do you protect Guy? He’s a man who insults you. Hates you. Would kill you himself if he had the chance. But for the salvation of this kingdom, would it be so hard to marry Sibylla? Jerusalem has no need of a perfect knight.
Balian: No, it is a kingdom of conscience, or nothing.
Sibylla: Who are you to refuse a king? I am what I am. I offer you that, and the world. You say no?
Balian: Do you think I’m like Guy? That I would sell my soul?
Sibylla: There’ll be a day when you will wish you had done a little evil to do great good.
Council: Aye!
Balian: No. If you must have war, this army cannot move away from water. You have a chance to hold the city, but if you move out against Saladin, this army will be destroyed and the city left defenseless.
Guy: When I wish a blacksmith to advise me in war, I will tell him.
Balian: Saladin wants you to come out. He is waiting for you to make that mistake. He knows his man.
Random Council Member: We should meet the enemies of God!
Guy: So we shall.
Tiberias: Then you do so without my knights
Guy: Then I will have the glory Tiberias, you had yours… years and years ago.
Tiberias: The King’s dead, and Jerusalem along with him.
Balian: You go with the army?
Hospitaler: My order is with the army.
Balian: You go to certain death.
Hospitaler: All death is certain. I shall tell your father what I’ve seen you become.
Balian: I will.
Tiberias: There has been no messenger.
Balian: Tiberias.
Tiberias: There is no more Jerusalem. We should go to Cyprus. Will you come with me?
Balian: No.
Tiberias: You are your father’s son. Saladin must move his army from water to water. That gives you four days, maybe five. God be with you, he’s no longer with me.
Bald Knight: Four hundred
Flag Man: Four hundred!
Balian: They’re here.
Bald Knight: It is only one man.
Balian: No, they’re here.
Bishop: We must leave the city.
Balian: How exactly my lord Bishop.
Bishop: The fastest horses from a lesser gate.
Balian: And the people?
Bishop: It is unfortuneate about the people, but it is God’s will.
Random Soldier: SILENCE!
Balian: It has fallen to us to defend Jerusalem and we have made our preparations as well as they can be made. None of us took this city from Muslims. No Muslim of the great army now coming against us was born when this city was lost. We fight over an offense we did not give. Against those who were not alive to be offended. What is Jerusalem? Your holy places lie over the Jewish temple that the Roman’s pulled down. The Muslim places of worship lie over yours. Which is more holy? The Wall? The Mosque? The {Sepelcha}? Who has claim? No one has claim. All have claim.
Bishop: That is blasphemy
Bald Knight: Be quiet.
Balian: We defend this city, not to protect these stones, but the people living within these walls.
Balian: Truly. What is your condition?
Servant Boy: I am servant to the Patriarch.
Bishop: He’s uh, one of my servants.
Balian: Is he? You were born a servant? Kneel. Every man at arms, or capable of bearing them, kneel! On your knees!!! Be without fear in the face of your enemies. Be brave and upright that God may love thee. Speak the truth, even if it leads to your death. Safeguard the helpless, that is your oath. And that is so you remember it. Rise, a knight! Rise, a knight!!!
Bishop: Who do you think you are? Wil you alter the world? Does making a man a knight make him a better fighter?
Balian: Yes.
Balian: No.
Bald Knight: When, will it begin?
Balian: Soon.
Balian: PUSH!
Bald Knight: PUSH!
Bald Knight: Saladin will show no mercy.
Balian: We must hold out. Force him to offer terms.
Bald Knight: What terms?
Balian: We fight for the people, their safety and freedom.
Soldier: Four hundred!
Another Soldier: Four hundred!
Balian: FIRE!
Bald Knight: FIRE!
Balian: Three hundred!
Soldier: Three hundred!
Bald Knight: FIRE!
Balian: One fifty!
Soldier: One fifty!
Bald Knight: FIRE!
Balian: Hold your fire! HOLD!
Balian: FIRE!!! FIRE!!!
Balian: OIL! NOW!!!
Balian: FIRE!!!
Balian: AHHH! AH!
Balian: FIRE!!!
Balian: If we do not burn these bodies, we will all be dead of disease in three days. God will understand, my lord. And if he doesn’t, then he is not God and we need not worry.
Bishop: Convert to Islam. Repent later.
Balian: You’ve taught me a lot about religion, your eminence.
Saladin: Will you yield the city?
Balian: Before I lose it, I will burn it to the ground. Your holy places, ours, every last thing in Jerusalem that drives me mad.
Saladin: I wonder if it would not be better if you did. You will destroy it?
Balain: Every stone. And every Christian Knight you kill, will take ten {Sharasins} with him. You will destroy your army here and never raise another. I swear to God to take this city will be the end of you.
Saladin: Your city is full of women and children. If my army will die, so will your city.
Balian: You offer terms, I ask none.
Saladin: I will give ever soul safe conduct to Christian lands. Every soul. The women, the children, the old, and all your knights and soldiers and your queen. No one will be harmed. I swear to god.
Balian: The Christians butchered every Muslim within the walls when they took this city.
Saladin: I am not those men. I am Saladin. Saladin.
Balian: Then under these terms, I surrender Jerusalem.
Saladin: (peace be with you in Islamic)
Balian: And peace be with you. What is Jersualem worth?
Saladin: Nothing. Everything.
The Whole City: BALIAN!
Sibylla: What should I do? I am still the queen of {Auck}, {Esquenon}, Triploi.
Balian: Decide not to be a queen, and I will come to you.
Balian: Thank you.
Nasir: And if god does not love you, how could you have done all the things you have done? May peace be upon you.
Balian: (peace be with you in Islamic)
Balian: You go to where the men speak Italian and then continue til they speak something else.
Richard the Lionheart: We come by this road to find Balian, who was defender of Jerusalem.
Balian: I am the blacksmith.
Richard the Lionheart: And I am the king of England.
Balian: I am the blacksmith.
Balian: You think that I would sell my soul?
Hospitaler: What God desires, is here, and here.
Balian: What could a king ask of a man like me?
Tiberias: You keep the peace.
Balian: No. And yes.
Sybilla: I offer you the world.
Balian: I have done murder.
Godfrey: Haven't we all.
Balian: Is it true that in Jerusalem I can erase my sins?
Godfrey: We can find out together.
Balian: Whatever you ask, I will serve.
Balian: I was born a servant. You are a princess.
Sibylla: A woman in my place has two faces. One for the world, and one which she wears in private. With you, I'll be only Sibylla.
Bald Knight: It is only one man.
Balian: No. They're here.
Bald Knight: When will it begin?
Balian: Soon.
Balian: You were born a servant? Kneel. Every man in arms or capable of bearing them, kneel. Be without fear in the face of your enemies. Be brave and upright, that God may love thee. Speak the truth, even it if leads to your death. Safegaurd the helpless. That is your oath. And that, is so you'll remember it. Rise a knight. Rise a knight!
Bishop: Who do you think you are? Will you alter the world? Does making a man a knight make him a better fighter?
Balian: Yes.
Saladin: Nothing Everything.
Balian: That I was to be a good knight.
Balian: The world will decide. The world always decides.
Balian: You are a princess, and I am no lord. You have my love and my answer.
Balian: For what?
Hospitaler: For the strength to endure what is to come.
