Heading inland seeking Hasdrubal
With an army to settle the score
To fight the man who brought his father’s death
At the Baetis three years before

Finding his prey south of Baecula
On high ground behind river and ravine
He split his army in to separate forces
One advancing, and one unseen

Scaling the hill under showering missiles
His infantry closed the gap!
A pincer striking on either flank,
Surrounding the Carthaginian camp!

Hasdrubal eluded the trap,
In the face of defeat he pulled his men back
Retreating to Gaul towards the mountain path
Where his brother, years past, marched on the attack

Hasdrubal escaped but his fate was sealed
He made it through the Alps to be killed in the field
Scipio, victorious, was not complete
Two more armies still awaited defeat!

News of Roman victory spread through the land,
Now came the chiefs of the Spanish clans
To pledge their loyalty to Jupiter’s son
Scipio’s Triumph was still to come!


Mago fell beneath his heel
Gisco too would be forced to kneel
To the man with a mind sharper than steel!
Thousands tried to bring him down
Thousands fell and hit the ground
To the young avenger of his family and his home!
