Raising an army on the shoulders of poor men The King makes his way to a sullen battlefield Treacherous roads and highwaymen they fear So many obstacles on the road to victory
But the war was lost And children never born Lives were destroyed And hope forlorn
The enemy is near, the hosts are set to fight At daybreak trumpets blare, red banners in the air A bloody clash ensues, a sea of bodies strewn The old King's life ended, his head thrown on a pike
The knights are fleeing fast and leaving serfs to die The villages are torched so nowhere to return to With carnage and rape the enemy has won For hundreds of years this soil is ever-barrenTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
