I can't see what is going n |
|
On these fields here where I belong |
|
Riders tell me what's going on |
|
Will we soon hear our victory song |
|
Rumour has it they're coming soon |
|
My own brother has told me so |
|
Oh Jerome onward you will go |
|
While Grouchy drives the Prussians away |
|
The splendour of France |
|
I don't fear Wellington |
|
This battle will be won |
|
We'll prevail and his bad English troops we'll defeat - today! |
|
First attack shall be Hougoumont |
|
Their reserves will be overrun |
|
Later on we will separate |
|
English troops from the Prussian ones |
|
Now the house stands in flames |
|
My battalions will tear down the walls |
|
Seems like Wellington's strong, won't give in - we shall see |
|
I don't fear Wellington |
|
This battle will be won |
|
We'll prevail and his bad English troops we'll defeat - today! |
