The Battle of Thermopylae: The Chronicle
480 B.C. the Persian armies were marching out for their fourth campaign in Europe The first time they were drawn back by Scythian tribes from the north In their second attempt, Poseidon the mighty god of sea sank their entire fleet On their third march, Persian armies were humiliated by brave Athenian forces Now! For one more time destiny called the brave ones to stand united like brothers Their Gods, their Fatherland, their Ancestors commanded them to serve their glorious land And to be united under one banner Seven hundred fearless Thespians Three hundred Spartan royal guards All with souls crafted in freedom against the dark serpent from the cast Blinded by the blaze of glory, raising their swords and their fists You could see them preparing for the battle to come.. You could feel the fire burning in Sparta's warriors. You could sense the aura of the battle rising.. However, no one could conceive the size of the bravery to come.. Almighty ZEUS of eternal Olympus! Send your thunderbolts to your sons! Carniun Apollon! Grant us with wrath to eradicate our enemies! Crimson eyed God Ares! Clang your sword on your shield, and let us hear your roar! The one of a thousand lions. Plouton! Ope the mystic gates of Hades and accept our gallant souls among, with the pitiful barbarians we bring to feed you!

Born in the golden age Forged death to embrace Bridge: ...Away from wealth's misery they rise under warrior's code They choose their life to be Only with cruel ancient low A life full of honor and pride they command, Like demons trained in battle to stand Combing and washing as always their hair Before the battle always prepared Bridge REFRAIN: In the land of the braves there's no place for their graves... they live and die with honour In the land of the braves there's no place for their graves... they live and die with honour The glorious city Sparta stands with no walls Sign of their pride that they'll fight till they fall Against such courage what use have the walls Bravery stands above all Bridge/Refrain

Deep in the east in the heart of beast Signs of war up high Dark are the clouds Gathering in the sky Xerxes king of kings Summons all his peers Bringing their armies' wealth Rivers of banner make nations lose their breath Like father like son One dream they share March and defeat The land of light that still resists He learned his lesson well Divide and conquer Only that way they'll fall The sons of Zeus that are still holding on REFRAIN: EARTH-THEY DEMAND And the holy springs, the evil lords LORDS OF CHAOS They march from the depths The dark empire returns EARTH-THEY DEMAND The messengers of the dark empire LORDS OF DECEPTION! Their dark ambitions fade in the wind The armies are marching, taming the waves Across the northland approaching the gates

Through the mist of time, when legend became myth On the sacred mountain, the oracle awaits Since the age of heroes prophecies to spread Kings to save their kingdoms Heroes to fulfill their fate Among the shadows, the priestess breathing python's breath Speaks the mystic oath behind the pure white veils Spoken riddles, words without sense Suddenly become a searching quest REFRAIN: SPARTAN MESSENGERS THE ORACLE APPROACH THROUGH MISTHROUGHTED PLAINS THEY INVOKE THEIR GODS THEIR ADVICE TO TAKE THROUGH DIVINATIONS WORDS HOW TO RULE THEIR FATE BY THE WILL OF GODS Pythia (Apollo's seer): - O ye men who dwell in the streets of broad Lacedaemon! Either your glorious town shall be sacked by the children of Perseus Or in exchange, must all through the whole Laconian country Mourn for the loss of a king descendant of great Heracles, He cannot be withstood by the courage of bulls nor of lions Strive as they may, he is mighty as Jove; there is naught that shall stay him Till he have got for his prey your king or your glorious city..." This is the riddle given to Spartan messengers Sorrow fills their heart for what they fate demands That the King must be sacrificed and so salvation comes Their eyes full of despair for what dark omen given Such a heavy price on altar's victory

Proud like the lions united we stand Sworn to fight to the bitter end Persians attack like furious waves Smashing upon Spartan Blades The first day of slaughter gives them a hope They promise their shields never to drop Their bloodstained spears devour enemy souls Hades waits to open his Gates... Inside their brain a thought comes alive To kill the tyrant and draw back his lines Few are selected for this cautions task Kill or be killed the die is cast There's no return for the eleven brave They're sneaking at last through the enemy's camp Through canyons like shadows the warriors advance History lies now in their hands BRIDGE: Few in number they stand, Sworn to fight till the end REFRAIN: Spartan...Glory awaits Fearless...Blades in the night Spartan...Brothers in Arms Fearless...Blades in the night Victory rises deep in their eyes Deceiving the guardians telling them lies Suddenly comes aid from the horde Defector Spartan shows them his lord Entering now the hall of the king Around Xerxes the battle begins Spears, blades, axes meeting the flesh But the tyrant stands still in this mess Bridge/Refrain/Refrain
