In shame we defile

Before our enemies

Forced to march

Under the Samnites' Spears



Seven years of wars

Have led us to this ruinous end

Seven years of wars

Were fought in vain



On a hostile ground that seemed to be

Protecting the Samnites

We were fighting though in our hearts the light

Of hope shone no more

Among the southern mountains lost

We quickly tired



With no supplies left exhausted we starved

Led by deceit towards our doom

Trapped in gorge, surrounded by woods

We were overthrown



In shame we defile

Before our enemies

Forced to march

Under the Samnites' Spears



Step by step, one by one

We bear the humiliations

Of facing our foolishness'es symbol

As we march we can hear their voices mocking us

Laughing, screaming, crying out their scorn

Our mouths are filled with the bitter taste of shame

Poisoning the blood - in our veins

Killing all our pride



On a hostile ground that seemed to be

Protecting the Samnites

We were fighting though in our hearts the light

Of hope shone no more

Among the southern mountains lost

We quickly tired
