Verse 1: When dawn's red banners streak the sky unfurled The eagle's chilling cry cuts through the world Talons extended, piercing fate's designs An ominous shadow where conquest aligns None dare defy its silhouette of dread All tremble at those shrieks of shadow and red For in its wings, an empire's might takes flight The bloody birth of glory born that night
Hook: All kneel at its behest or be erased Such is the price for pride misplaced No stronghold, no bulwark can stem its advance All are but playthings ensnared in its dark dance Kingdoms demolished, royalty unbound
Verse 2: Descending from its aerie on high A lethal blizzard raining from the sky As Roman legions rampage cross the plain The earth lies paralyzed, caught in its reign No scepter'd sovereign can forestall its dive No noble house or regal reign survive The world convulses, split from mass and bone As the eagle's dark shadow smothers every throne
Hook: Beak and talon rending all Pride and pomp begin to fall The eagle casts its dread pall Bringing ruin to those enthralled The eagle reigns supreme, imperium! Over lands and over seas, victoriam! The eagle reigns supreme, imperium! Over lands and over seas, victoriam! Bow before its might, omnium! Resistance futile, ruinam! Omnium! All kneel at its behest or be erased Such is the price for pride misplaced No stronghold, no bulwark can stem its advance All are but playthings ensnared in its dark dance Kingdoms demolished, royalty unbound Pride and power dethroned and run agroundTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
