Crowned in January of 1066 (ten sixty six) Harold was set as king Formidable warrior, a braveheart he is William from Normandy Now the times are ripe for war To put again a men on the throne As defender of fate, the Norman is claiming the land Beyond the Channel, the Godwin's array is waitin' the siege without dread and delay People of Anglia do tremble with fear 'cause William's sword is weird Now the times are ripe for war To put your hands again on thy swords The die is cast History is going to be changed Warrior and King Two men, one throne The way for glory is peace in the reign a Warrior a King Of steel is forged their soul United by oath To claim the right to the crown Now the times are ripe for war To put your hands again on thy swords The die is cast History is going to be changed [BRIDGE] [CHORUS 1] [CHORUS 2] THEY FOUGHT

Blow new winds on British destiny Et Contentio de solio inter reges orta est [Edward to Harold:] "Now on my deathbed I lie and when I'll fly on the black wings of Death you'll guide my reign" Words that led the empire to tragedy time of sudden plots and treacheries new page in the book of human disgraces Harold in regnum successit "On your shoulder I'm leaving the care of my kingdom, my despair" Incautum donum ! [Harold:] "I command now!" Calamitas! Feelings of illusions Are smashin' your mind and your soul Inside your hurt pride Is crying for revenge Vengeance is the answer Harold has broken a holy oath ,he'll pay Only your truth you want to see in your eyes Your blaze of anger still burns in time Harold has to clash with a Viking invasion The envy of his brother Is Grand Lead your troops through the land of the Godwin Carry hope Of a new great fair reign Harold to his warriors: " Stamford bridge was just a part of the struggle Warriors, I ask you to trust in my strength Only the bravehearts will cross the bridge of spears" Echoes of war Menaces of battle to reclaim the right to the throne Shake the air War and despair The wind from the south brings The dawn of a new Norman reign Dux britannicum fretus Transivit sine mora [William to the Fleet:] "Friends o' mine ,you must keep the rules Until the end of time" Et litora attincta sunt Sunrise on Hastings ,a new day's beginning A day in the name of new blood Echoes of war Menaces of battle to reclaim the right to the throne Shake the air War and despair The wind from the south brings The dawn of a new Norman reign

Riding to Hastings, Treading the stone Wretched of forces for the last war Harold arrived in time To stop the enemy's ride Near to defeat, he should collide With all William's ardour before he dies But his stubbornness gave him the strength To fight for a future gain Exploits and bloodshed stained those lands The scream of heroes still resounds over the battleground Waves of defenders armed with steel Led by the Norman to Telham Hill Were ready to pass through the Bridge of Spears And to face the growing fears Holy clouds darkened the sky When the kings delivered these blessed words: "Brothers in battle, this war could be the way of no return" But this hardness soothed the hearts Silence preceded the harrowing wait Men were praying God Holy defenders of faith Held the ties of loyalty Aware of a glorious death They decided to face the threat , standing the pain with grandiose pride Holders of power relive Remembered through the women's cry Away from home They decided to face their fate towards the torment of their sacrifice Ante lucem acies trucies Processerunt sine metu Duo duces paraverunt rationes proximae pugnae "Profundite vitam pro nostro domino" And the darkness flooded their hearts Silence preceded the harrowing wait Men were praying God Holy defenders of faith Held the ties of loyalty Aware of a glorious death They decided to face the threat , standing the pain with grandiose pride Holders of power relive Remembered through the women's cry Away from home They decided to walk the way Raising the flag of the reign ([choir:] RAISING THE FLAG) Nourishing few consolations inside But ready to face the torment of their sacrifice

Audacibus erunt potestas et gloria Vivent semper Domino credunt Domino confidunt Omnibus cum viribus Ira caeli descendet in acies et in gladios Veniet et animos incendet contra hostes Celum et terra coniungent se Cum virtus iustorum triumphabit Plurimus cruor et ferrum invadabunt ista loca Sed magnus dux accipiet auxilium dei Cum vinceret bellum

Duces instruxerunt copias in acie Impetus et timor mentis militium perturbaverunt Among the lines of the arrayments They could feel a strange call of death Et fervor pugnandi minuit Wait and dread prevailed over the calm "Leave your hopes beyond the horizon. You will fight only to survive. Raise your steels and pride!" Harold said before the last command Tragic hail. Innocent blood in vain Soldiers drew up in battle order How many are going to die? William inciting his warriors said: "My brave, we fight for the glory and the lands" The bray of the horns giving the charge Re-echos through this valley of the damned Soldiers dashin' assault face to face Sweat and blood are shed everywhere Red dragon waves on the top of the hill As the battle goes on with a blaze made of steel "My valiant men: Go and fight!" Sir William roared to the archers and knights Clashing of sword and mighty strokes Of maces resound on the battlefield Around a spreading of blood There's no road for retreat into this storm So fight on and on! Scream of Thaillefer Strong like a thunder Great Lord of war take Bless our souls Grant the blades of these men'swords a grand day of blood Scream of Taillefer Against the shield wall Hundreds of steel warriors Fighting for thy kingdom They are winged by a fierce call to run through the enemy's wall Virtus et magna audacia splendebunt In excelsis caeli memoria Semper gloria sit In excelsis semper sit gloria, domine Non confundar in aeternum Salvum fac nos [CHORUS ] "Triumph will gladden your hearts!"

Belli voces cum mortis campanis resonabant Ulciscendi cupiditas corpora et animos incendit "But destiny had already crowned his man: the Conqueror prevailed" Magnus cruciatus haroldis cord invasit Lookin' at this rout I can hear the call of death deep in my heart While I stay apart Infantrymen and Knights are fighting for a glory But they recognize the cause of my promises I cannot bear all this guilt I am the King of the reign In this land I command Under the guide of my sword My wills could become real But this time I will loose my crown Arrows are falling down over my army There's a mystical shade It's the anger of fate I'm feeling the darkness,the revenge against all my life Against my empire Loneliness,tragedy,pain Are flooding this grieved heart Growing sweat on my face William,you win your challenge But you won't get my regress as long as I'm alive! Wait for me,I say wait for more Cold as ice when you'll lay your blow In my disgrace there's your face,there's my pain Revenge and curse are falling Over my tormented domain Over my last desires Legions of death are breaking my army I can't stop this hate I'm feelinig the Anger of Fate Wait for me, wait for my defeat In all these years, there was you in my fears Revenge and curse are falling Over my tormented domain Over my last desires Legions of death are breaking my army I can't stop this hate I can't stop the Anger of Fate

Blow the winds of bloodshed their immortal chilling breeze Widespread on the lands of Caldbec Hill Taking off my head this helmet that's what now I see My friends and foes united by their deadly destiny God have guided my sword towards the final victory My men are on their way to Bridge of Spears My God be pity and answer to thy servant's final plea Don't make me taste the loneliness that always curses kings Give me wings to command And power to spread Give the peace to these lands [CHORUS:] I've witnessed the slaughter In the lands of Caldbec Hill I've sent my men to face death Was all this meant just for me? I've witnessed the slaughter In the lands of Caldbec Hill I've raised my arms, I've taken their lives I'm William the only king Time has come when I shall rule on these lands My word shall be law and my law shall command Carve my name with sacred fire On the stone that history saved for me Give me wings to command And power to spread Give peace to these lands [CHORUS:] I've witnessed the slaughter In the lands of Caldbec Hill I've sent my men to face death Was all this meant just for me? I've witnessed the slaughter In the lands of Cladbec Hill I've raised my arms, I've taken their lives I'm William the only king

Rex normannus strenue vicit But the cruel bloodshed Suum bellicum animum commovit Kyrie eleison Reigns the calm over Sentlach On the distressed "lake of blood" Young men dead lie near me Valiant sons of Normandy Lord of the graces Bless my fallen men Let me know my defaults to quiet my conceited soul Waiting for the holy day The future of the crown depends on me Few joys for my broken heart 'cause the throne is stained with blood I lost the faith to vindicate my rights Against my wish and desires Breaking the life of innocent men I defied the sky damning my hands Acris victoria capta magno sacrificio Perturbavit animum victoris Demons on the crown Growing vexation and shades Beyond my guise Marks of unforgotten pain Sadness in my mind Dims the reasons of my claim And how can I Live with this unwitting , deep remorse Lugubre fatum! Exsecratio vade retro! Worrying flash in my sleepless nights The visions of death relive through my eyes I lost the faith to vindicate my rights Against my wish and desires Breaking the life of innocent men I defied the sky damning my hands Demons on the crown Growing vexation and shades Beyond my guise Marks of unforgotten pain Sadness in my mind Darkens the cause of my claim Inside it's shaking How can I forget that killing dart Kyrie eleison
