The first of March, I'm back again, it's 1815 |
|
Louis tries to claim my rights, just a fact I have foreseen |
|
One by one my army grows as we march towards Paris |
|
The king has fled, we're gathered here, our victory it is |
|
Now I'm back on the throne of France |
|
The royalists are on defence |
|
Fight, brothers we fight |
|
Raise my flag on sacred ground |
|
Take the crown and sing out loud |
|
You my children, my country, my pride |
|
Now the time has come to make the world all your own |
|
You're never alone |
|
See, see what they've done, in this one moment of hope |
|
Still we stand here unbent and defiant |
|
He's awakened: the sleeping giant |
|
The Allies wanna end my reign with fire, sword and shield |
|
150.000 men they put into the field |
|
But still I'm yearning |
|
The world is burning down |
|
Our fate is turning |
|
They've declared me an outlaw again |
|
Now the time has come to make the world all your own |
|
You're never alone |
|
See, see what they've done, in this one moment of hope |
|
Still we stand here unbent and defiant |
|
He's awakened: the sleeping giant |
|
Join our forces, be our men |
|
Fight the good fight, stand aligned till the end |
|
For our land |
|
Lead and powder, keep it dry |
|
March to Belgium, through the night we will fly |
|
They will die |
|
Now the time has come to make the world all your own |
|
You're never alone |
|
See, see what they've done, in this one moment of hope |
|
Still we stand here unbent and defiant |
|
He's awakened: the sleeping giant |
