Song language: English
The Essence Of The Ashes |
And it came to pass in those leaden days |
That a plain, poor man got sick of his yoke of condemned soil |
And a foreign empires hungry purse |
Time to replace the pitchfork with the sword |
And sound the anthem of sheer rebellion |
Enough! |
Once too often! |
Enough is enough! |
We strive not for war |
We just crave to have our home |
We just seek to have our rights |
That our fathers used to have |
But we tasted the grime and blood |
We tasted the essence of ashes |
A glowing spark |
Rising up from blazing flames |
To lead the forlorn and the wroth |
The epitome of hope and freedom |
A daring venture |
A frenetic attempt |
When Amandus was slain |
The Bagundae still sang |
