In the house of Hades
Nevermore sun
In the realm of shadows
I know my future
I know my doom
I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid
Doom is written
In their number now
River of bronze
Flowing down the horizon
That is my future
That is my doom
I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid
[Narration: the Oracle of Delphi from "The Histories" of Horodotus]
Oh, Ares! Bitter god of war
Fatal to the men, here I swear
They will never see our backs
Oh Zeus! A last look to the sun
Not yet hidden by the darts, no doubt for the choose
We'll be like oaks in the storm
And when the smoke of our pyres
Burning on the battlefield
Reaching the sky
Then you will know
Which was our doom
We were not afraid, we were not afraid
Sky without stars In the house of Hades Nevermore sun In the realm of shadows I know my future I know my doom I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid Doom is written In their number now River of bronze Flowing down the horizon That is my future That is my doom I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid [Narration: the Oracle of Delphi from "The Histories" of Horodotus] Oh, Ares! Bitter god of war Fatal to the men, here I swear They will never see our backs Oh Zeus! A last look to the sun Not yet hidden by the darts, no doubt for the choose We'll be like oaks in the storm And when the smoke of our pyres Burning on the battlefield Reaching the sky Then you will know Which was our doom We were not afraid, we were not afraid Explain Request ×
