|
The hands of time have spoken for the chosen ones |
|
cold steel glistens in the dawning sun; |
|
(It's) destiny and claidemaugh that embraces me |
|
All here to sacrifice for victory, |
|
Hidden in the shadows when the cold wind comes |
|
..A mist queen dances for her fallen sons. |
|
Over and over, her shadow falls over me. |
|
Remember no retreat, from here you |
|
die where you stand. |
|
It's chance that brings the "Rory's" to this |
|
Foreign land, |
|
The crimson and the claidemaugh make you |
|
"Strangers to fear" |
|
A thin red streak tipped with a line of steel... |
|
Shadows fall over me |
|
All for the "thin rred line". |
|
CHORUS: |
|
All for the thin red line |
|
All for the thin red line ... |
|
Now the battles over, Kedikoi can cry; for all |
|
The gallant billmen she's seen fought and die; |
|
Red is for the heroes; |
|
Green is for the brave; |
|
(Oh!) "Soldiers would you leave me with no souls |
|
To save". |
|
CHORUS: |
