With their shields and their swords
To fight the fight
They believed to be right
Overthrow the overlords
To the town where there was plenty
They brought plunder, swords and flame
When they left, the town was empty
And children would never play again
From their graves I heard the fallen
Above the battle cry
By that bridge near the border
There were many more to die
Then onward over the mountain
Outward towards the sea
They come to claim the emerald
Without it they could not leave
Down from the glen came the marching men With their shields and their swords To fight the fight They believed to be right Overthrow the overlords To the town where there was plenty They brought plunder, swords and flame When they left, the town was empty And children would never play again From their graves I heard the fallen Above the battle cry By that bridge near the border There were many more to die Then onward over the mountain Outward towards the sea They come to claim the emerald Without it they could not leave Explain Request ×
