Tekst piosenki:
War…
At the gates of Rome
Hannibal…
Ante portas
Hell…
Will turn loose
Killing fields…
Legions shall fall
First clash…
Shores of Ticinus
Unwary Scipio…
Wounded and defeated
Back…
Legions retreat
First defeat
Mightier we get
--Sempronius…
Filled with rush
Dead …
Would become
Flaminius…
Blindly in trap will fall
Fogs of death
Will engulf his men
Aemilius…
With mightiest of legions
3 to 1
80 thousand men
Engulfed
By the concave plan
Cannae…
The mightiest of battles
16 years will pass
And no one can rise
To prevail over the genius
Except for one man
With one insight
And will be known
As Scipio Africanus
And the famous lines
“Take the war to Carthage”
Which will save
The walls of Rome
The wrath they dread
The Carthaginian dishearten
Called back their son
To defend and defeat
The luring enemy
Behind their gates
As he returned in hurry
With missing horsemen
The wind will change
(As African allies
Will aid Rome
With decisive element
Men on horses!)
