That dawn, envoy arise!
Morning of Octover 28th "No Day" proved by deeds Descendants of Sparta, Athens and Crete! Look now, ready to fight! Enemies charge from the hills To arms! Facing defeat There's no surrender! There's no retreat! Time after time force the enemy back to the line! Coat of arms banners fly in the wind! For the glory of Hellas! Coat of arms bringing freedom of death! Blood of king Leonidas! Air raid! Pounding the land bombers are flyn' both day and night End you six days of reign! Good bye invaders! Bomb raid in vain! Strike hard! The tables have turned Drive them back over the hills At arms! Just like before! Soldiers! Civilians! Hellas's at war! By their own hand forced the enemy out of their land! Coat of arms banners fly in the wind! For the glory of Hellas! Coat of arms bringing freedom of death! Blood of king Leonidas! Just like their ancestors ages ago Fought in the face of defeat Those three hundred men left a plight to uphold Freedom or death in the fight Then, now again, Blood of heroes saving their land Coat of arms banners fly in the wind! For the glory of Hellas! Coat of arms bringing freedom of death! Blood of king Leonidas! Coat of arms banners fly in the wind! For the glory of Hellas! Coat of arms bringing freedom of death! Blood of king Leonidas! 02. Midway
Send them over the waves
Our sentinels They report in the news Position of our foes This battlefield´s been choosen, tactically in advance Time to alert our fighters We´re soon in range Midway We'll meet at Midway Naval War Calling all men to deck Got to be airborne Head out into the sun Decending on our foes This is the crucial moment, in the heat of the war To fly and hit our targets Down in the waves Midway Display their might, ordering carriers, admirals at war We'll meet at Midway To win the fight, tactics are crucial, naval war Far from shore, a pacific war Bombs are falling from the skies Its a bombrun day, it the naval way A bloodred sun is on the rise 03. Uprising
Warsaw Rise!
Do you remember when, When the Nazis forced their rule on Poland 1939 and the allies turned away From the underground Rose a hope of freedom as a whisper City in despair, but they never lost their faith Women, men and children fight They were dying side by side And the blood they shed upon the streets Was a sacrifice willingly paid Warsaw, city at war Voices from underground, whispers of freedom 1944 help that never came Calling Warsaw, city at war Voices from underground, whispers of freedom Rise up and hear the call History calling to you Warszawo, walcz! Spirit, soul and heart In accordance with the old traditions 1944 still the allies turn away Fighting street to street In a time of hope and desperation Did it on their own and they never lost their faith Women, men and children fight They were dying side by side And the blood they shed upon the streets Was a sacrifice willingly paid Warsaw, city at war Voices from underground, whispers of freedom 1944 help that never came Calling Warsaw, city at war Voices from underground, whispers of freedom Rise up and hear the call History calling to you Warszawo, walcz! All the streetlights in the city Broken many years ago Break the curfew, hide in sewers Warsaw, it's time to rise now Warsaw, city at war Voices from underground, whispers of freedom 1944 help that never came Calling Warsaw, city at war Voices from underground, whispers of freedom Rise up and hear the call History calling to you Warszawo, walcz! 04. Screaming Eagles
Crack of the lightning splitting the ground
Thunder is sounding, artilley pounding Wrath of the nazis cast on Bastogne Facing their forces alone ALONE! Sent from the skies jumped into the unknown The march to Berlin has begun Spearhead the charge surrounded by foes Eagles are leading the way France is still under enemy rule Push, axis retreat Thrown towards Arnhem a bitter defeat They're stretched out just one bridge to far Turn of the tide, it's breaking away Losing momentum, retreat Go to Bastogne, the crossroads must hold Stand, alone in the cold Dig your own foxholes or dig your own grave The storm is about to begin The seige has begun, there's nowhere to run Panzerkampfwagen emerge Tanks and mortars are shaking the ground Prey of man and machine Chill of the winter bite to the bone and christmas is drawing near Soldiers are freezing, the death toll increasing They're dying in their holes There's no surrender there's no retreat, the wehrmacht is drawing near There's no reinforcements they're fighting all alone Sent from the skies ended up in Bastogne As Easy, as hard as they get Nazi command request and demand Offered surrender - declined Nuts! the generals word echo clear Nuts! the nazi's shall hear 05. The Final Solution
Country in depression
Nation in despair One man seeking reasons everywhere Growing hate and anger The Fuhrer's orders were precise Who was to be blamed and pay the price! Wicked propaganda Turning neighbors into foes Soldiers of the Third Reich searching homes And then the former friends are watching As they are rounded up one by one Times of persecutions has begun Ever since it started On Crystal night of 38 When liberty died And truth was denied Sent away on train on a one-way trip to hell Enter the gates - Auschwitz awaits! When freedom burns The final solution Dreams fade away and all hope turns to dust When millions burn The curtain has fallen Lost to the world as they perish in flames There was a country in despair There was a nation in recession One man finding reasons everywhere Then there was raising hate and anger The Fuhrer's orders still apply Who was to be blamed and send to die! Ever since it started On crystal night of 38 When liberty died And truth was denied Sent away on trains sent on a one-way trip to hell Enter the gates - Auschwitz awaits! When freedom burns The final solution Dreams fade away and all hope turns to dust When millions burn The curtain has fallen Lost to the world as they perish in flames When freedom burns The final solution Dreams fade away and all hope turns to dust When millions burn The curtain has fallen Lost to the world as they perish in flames 06. Aces In Exile
From near and far they arrived join the force
Ready to serve the Allies command Sent in the training, though they already earned their wings They were ready to flight they were fit for the fight Once in the air the battle began They've proven their worth they fight for revenge Fighter pilots in exile fly for foreign land To the story be heard tell of 303 Fighter pilots of Poland in the battle of Britain Guarding the skies of the isle Even at night shadows cover the ground Fighting goes on from dusk till dawn We fall on the Reich with the claws of the eagle! (They were) Ready to fight, (they were) ready to die Up in the air, the battle goes on They've proven their worth they have their revenge Fighter pilots in exile fly for foreign land To the story again to the 310 Men of Czechoslovakia in the battle of Britain Guarding the skies of the isle Over the battlefield, brave man long way from home You are the chosen ones, sent to the sky to die Over the battlefield, brave man long way from home You are the chosen ones, sent to the sky to die (Ooo) fly - it echoes in history Turning the tides in the heavens above Fighter pilots in exile fly for foreign land To battles been won to the 401 Fighter pilots of Canada in the battle of Britain Guarding the skies of the isle On wings of history they turn from home To live eternally sky bound they roam In our own history, never before Was moral to so few Fight the pilot in exile! 07. Saboteurs
Dropped on to the world of ice
A battle of frozen lakes A nazi place of doom in their sights Training camp on Scottish heights To commando saboteurs A mission of their lives lies ahead Called in to serve And they knew what to do They were the heroes of the cold Warrior soul, they signed a book of history they played a leading role to win the 2nd war Allied time was running short They were raised against the bomb And hours turned to days, and time passed on As the nature test their strength They would fight through night and day To live the amongst the wild to stay alive Heroes of the Telemark Carry viking blood in vains Warriors of the northern land They'll live forever more 08. Wehrmacht
Pulled into war to serve a vision that's supposed to last a thousand years
Part of a machine unstoppable, as merciless as tidal waves Were they the victims of the time, or proud parts of larger goals? Propaganda of the reich masterful machine Time and again the battle rages on beyond the gates of misery As casualties rise and millions die around them did they see it all? Crazy madmen on a leash, or young men who lost their way? Grand illusions of the reich may seem real at times Panzers on a line form the wehrmacht's spine Lethal grand design What about the men executing orders? Ad victoriam Ex machina Non sibi sed patriae Pulled into war to serve a vision that just didn't last a thousand years Part of a machine, though stoppable as merciless as tidal waves 09. White Death
Almost night, a crimson horizon, Painting a thousand legs red
As your army approach in the east, a panther is searching his prey All alone, a man with his gun, wanders into the wild Drags you down, you can't hide once he is onto your trail Enter the night, a flash in the darkness, White Death is heading your way The fear of his foes, a hero at home, hundreds will fall by his gun You're in the sniper's sight, the first kill tonight, time to die You're in the bullet's way, the White Death's prey, say goodbye After the dawn, when morning has broken, the snow was whitened to red Hundreds of soldiers were harmed in the fight, a tale of a sniper is born Snowing mouth, hiding his breath, he is steady at hand Eye to eye, target in sight, the moment to fire has come Hundereds of kills, a men and his rifle, embodies the sissu of Finns Stay out of sight, and cover your head, when he pulls the trigger you're dead You're in the sniper's sight, the first kill tonight, time to die You're in the bullet's way, the White Death's prey, say goodbye You're in the sniper's sight (sniper's sight) Your his first kill tonight (first kill tonight) Say goodbye (say goodbye) 10. Metal Ripper
You're in for surprise, you're in for a shock
In london town streets when there's darkness and fog I'm going down, all the way down I'm on the highway to hell from here Blessed by the night, holy and bright Called by the toll of the bell Oh Mr. Crowley did you talk to the dead Sleep with the devil and then you must pay Abandoned land come on in child take my hand Hear a rising force Watch the damned they're gonna break their chains Through the night you can hear them Twisting you mind and smashing your dreams Blinded by me you can't see a thing Torches blazed and sacred chants were praised Blood on your face you big disgrace A strand of silver hanging through the sky Touching more than you can see Appears like a wonder without any move Gonna get close, closer to you |
