(Ode to Ancient) Europa |
| I still hear the ancient warcry |
| (Roma to Brittania) |
| I still hear the ancient battlecry |
| The great old European heroes, the proud old European names |
| Like snow now melted for sunlight, today their lustre gleams |
| Gone are the great old empires, the proud old names are low |
| That shed a glory over the ancient world, a thou sand years ago |
| But wandering the medieval cities beholding our ancient lands |
| Albion, Saxonia, land of Franks constructed by our ancestor’s |
| Hands |
| (from Erin to Caledonia) |
| I still hear the ancient warcry |
| (Ellada to Helvetia) |
| I still hear the ancient battlecry |
| (from Lusitania to Hispania) |
| I still hear the ancient warcry |
| (Mycenae to Macedonia) |
| I still hear the ancient battlecry |
| In the country of our fathers on the land and sea |
| Can you hear a million voices? |
| Thy forefathers summoning thee! |
| Summoning thee! |
| Many centuries ago, beyond the hazy space |
| In Brittany, Eire and Caledonia there dwelt a mighty race |
| Celts they were called, like their holy oaks, they had a giant |
| Grace |
| (fierce was the Byzantine empire |
| Spread over the Balkans, Asia, Minor and Greece |
| Combining eastern and western tradition |
| A gateway to the East) |
| Slavonian kingdoms, empires and tribes |
| Defending their ancient lands and rights |
| From invading hordes from the East |
| Thousands slaughtered (fair) men and beast |
| (from Byzantium to Phoenicia) |
| I still hear the ancient warcry |
| (Etruria to Cymru) |
| I still hear the ancient battlecry! |
