Curse of the Cwelled |
| Snared under fire-blackened skies, fettered in humbling irons |
| Burned are the staples of life |
| Crushed by a torturing hand, terrors demolish the land |
| Low is the spirit of man |
| Yield prostrate in decay, dignity stolen away |
| Grim is the price that was paid |
| Brave are the ones who defy rulers in castles on high |
| Slowly a nation will die |
| Arrogant conquering powers, pompous in ivory towers |
| Crows at the carcass devour |
| Oil in a deadly machine, cruelty reigning supreme |
| Sneering at all that has been |
| But we will rise, cast them aside |
| See the tyrants flee to the hostile sea |
| And we will own all that will be |
| Never fade or fall, ever breaking free |
| See the fires on the hills |
| Hear the hammers ring |
| Feel the thrill of the fight |
| Let the storm begin |
| 'Worhton castelas wide geond þas þeode, and earm folc swencte, and a syððan hit |
| yflade swiðe. |
| Wurðe god se ende þonne God wylle.' |
| - AS Chronicle 1066 |
| (They built castles all across the land, and oppressed the wretched people, |
| and afterwards it grew ever worse. |
| May the end be good, when God wills.) |
| Harshly, the wretched compelled; |
| bearing the curse of the cwelled |
| Plundered is dwelling and feld |
| Roaming, the ousted adrift; |
| stoic, the stalwart persist |
| Bleak is the conqueror’s gift |
| But (so) we will rise, cast them aside |
| See the tyrants flee to the hostile sea |
| And we will own all that will be |
| Never fade or fall, ever (we are) breaking free |
| See the fires on the hills |
| Hear the hammers ring |
| Feel the thrill of the fight |
| Let the storm begin |
