Over deze songtekst:
Het lied gaat over de geallieerde samenwerking in een van de bloedigste gevechten in Italie. De strijd om Monte Cassino vond plaats in 1944. Monte Cassino is een berg ruim 130 km van Rome. Het stadje Cassino werd volledig verwoest. Ook het aldaar gelegen klooster veranderde in een ruine. De geallieerden wonnen, maar het aantal gesneuvelde en gewonde soldaten overtrof ruimschoots de verliezen aan Duitse kant. Ruim 55 duizend soldaten tegenover ruim 20 duizend soldaten.
Regard your soldiers as your children and they will follow you into the deepest battles. Look upon them as your own beloved sons and they will stand by you, even until death. As a turn of the tide it is our turn to rise The force of a union at war March over mountains on our way to the north On the road that will lead us to Rome Our way will not be easy It will take us through hardship and pain Hill after hill breaking their lines of defense Head on north Mile after mile our march carries on No army may stop our approach Fight side by side, many nations unite In the shadow of Monte Cassino We fight and die together As we head for the valley of death Destiny calls, we'll not surrender or fail To arms, under one banner As a unit we stand and united we fall As one, fighting together Bringing an end to the slaughter Winds are changing Head on north Head on north Head on north Times are changing Head on north To arms, under one banner As a unit we stand and united we fall As one, fighting together Bringing an end to the slaughter Winds are changing Head on north
