We are crossing the heartland |
|
Deep inside in the realms of ancient Greece |
|
A path that have walked 300 men and a brave warrior king |
|
They fought for the future of the land |
|
And with pride they served a higher cause |
|
In a battlefield that was mend to be well known |
|
Cause they have dared to raise their swords |
|
Against two million men they fought |
|
Death is waiting for those who tried |
|
And even the Gods have cried |
|
For the land for the king |
|
Debt of honour to steel |
|
They stood for the right |
|
And till the last of them died |
|
Cause the ground was painted red with their blood through the gates of fire |
|
The story is being told so many times |
|
But still is drifting in our minds |
|
Those Sparta's sons have hunted the fate of internal life |
|
And when time comes you have got to know |
|
There is a burning flame in us all, |
|
And march like them in the very path of glory |
|
Long haired divine heroes came here to the gates of fire |
|
To fight for their pride to stop the darkness over the light. |
|
300 against hundreds of thousands 3 days of horrible massacre. |
|
Faces transformed into death masks. |
|
Their eyes dreadful holes... and victory was so close. |
|
Then the betrayal. |
|
They left their broken bodies one by one on the battlefield obeying the law of Sparta |
