A distant sound of war raging on

When sun has set beyond the golden horizon

A thousand times thousand painful cries

Why god we are victims of your betrayal and lies

Across the plains with torches in hand

To defend with pride their fatherland

Through forests over rivers and deserted fields

Protected by armour, with swords and shields



Fallen have thrones and glorious kings

No time to fly on the triumphant wings

Now castles lie empty, raptured the walls

Gather the troops, fatherland calls

"Please take my life so that I can see

What makes a man my enemy

To die in battle a warrior's pride

Feel the wind as we shall ride

Side by side..."



The light has faded, my eyes can't see

My time has come, in dark they call me

Battle has ended, with that came silence

For what we fought with blades, with violence



"Please take my life so that I can see

What makes a man my enemy

To die in battle a warrior's pride

Feel the wind as we shall ride. Side by side...
