Your Gaulish War |
Fraught with so much greed, imperial needs |
Satisfy your hunger for might and blood! |
With greedy claws the eagle flew |
Leaving chaos and widows on his hunt |
We do not accept to bear the half-moon on our feet |
Nor to bow, to the laurel wreath! |
«Haec terra mea est» — the urge of your own want |
Spurring the horse towards the devastating ain’t |
It’s the pauper that accrouches — bared indigence |
Your need should cost unnumbered lives! |
Might and riches you have sought |
Willing to pay the price in human lives! |
False and fallacious, killing and omnivorous |
Depleting the value of human life! |
But we always knew: You came with fortune |
And one day you’d come with steel! |
We did not accept to bear the half-moon on our feet! |
A tort that pays it wage death? |
Well, how does it feel, the blood on your hands? |
I hope you had a ball in effacing lives! |
Well, how does it feel, the blood on your hands? |
I hope the gold you’ve won bestows your delight! |
…standing at the top of all the ruin you have left… |
Watch our wives remigrate with crooked backs… |
