A Day Of Reckoning

Low, my children, what do I see?

Your brothers and sister on the warpath

Forgiven are all your earthly sins

Make way for honour and valour in your soul

What is this, this run we’re on

A race known as the human one

Many have died and many have killed

Innocent blood is remorselessly spilled

Our land is beseeched by conflict

Far in the distance blow the horns of war

Travel beyond the mountains of peril

With faith and courage in your heart

The party is weary

Long days and nights take their toll

The howling winds are beckoning

The earth trembles beneath their feet

The last sun sets and the fire roars

A banquet, a feast for all and eye to see

Tonight we pray to all the gods of lore

With open eyes and heart we accept our fate

Drenched in blood, so will be our fatherland

In moonlight the battlefield lies beckoning

Hark, my brethren, lend me your ears

Today, on the battlefield we face our destiny

Yonder, over the mountains in the east

A new day is dawning, a day of reckoning

March over the meadows, march over the plains

Over the hills and far away

With raised spirits and sword in hand

Onwards to battle, onwards to war
