When I reminisce about all those years, I see many things. Life and death strung together like the mountains and valleys in which we lived. There was wealth and opulence, but also tribulation and loss. There was laughter and song, and there was also tears. But even more than tears, blood was shed. And so many were left to their unadorned graves, unburied. But to us, death was but another journey. And close by the darkness through which we strode, there was also light. The light of life and immortality. And after all, when I reminisce about those years, I mostly remember our songs. We sang... as if to drown out the sound of clashing swords, as if the battle cries fell silent... because war had lost it's meaning. |

Bodiacos Sunartiu Secos Brigos Anauos From antumnos the life-giving winds Fanned the flames into a blaze The awen of the mighty By the force of Succellus sledge By every impact of Ogmios club With Bricta's invincible epiphany A tribe arose A tribe broke forth Cause we're born free Cause we're born wild Cause we are indomitable and bold Cause we are fire (brave) Cause we are wave (strong) Cause we are rock (tribe) We are one - we are helvetios The ears tethered to the divine tongue Following the ancient wise As laughter fills antumnos Drinking from the cup of life The well that's never running dry We wandered into the light of day Again Taranis enthean wheel revolved From antumnos life was upheaved By the force of Succelus sledge By every impact of Ogmios club With Bricta's invincible epiphany |

At the rise of a new dawn Rose the children of the sun To inhabit a kingdom Augustly crowned in rock mass vast All lakes are sanowaries Live covent nemetors All forests are hallowed Blest groves of an invictus tribe Nertom woloutom que Etsi snis Karamos-e Nertom woloutom que etsi snis Emmos snis riyi emmo snis Widomor-e Karamos-e Emos snis riyi emmos snis andrometi Nertom woloutom que etsi snis Emmos snis riyi emmos snis A kingly tribe sublime Arose in its golden time In a prosperous era The age primodrial reign A horde of untameables Invincible Armada A dashing bold host Of venturous fearnaughts |

In these vigilant times I daydream - an innocuous crime My motionless stance - in my mind, I wander the land A bleak, dismal trance Constrained, unsafe, left in shame And now I can see my town is painted red Here forever I'll be where once my tears were shed On that day, in our place I recall the smell of the rain And I'd protect you from them if you want me to take Take you there again Good night my love, let me watch you sleep from here or above Words like these won't leave this place Be haunted by our trace, the trace of our... Home The home they want call their own But for the air that I breathe, the dreams and divine The memories I'll bring to A place far from home The home they want to call province of Rome I'm trapped without guards, within a state I can't grasp But we're still free I am waiting for the clouds to part, all in vain Nature forsaken Once admired by us all, does it know we're scared Scared to move, scared to wake, scared just to be who we were What matters is just you and me and the path that leads us... Encircled by friends, the pressure deepens Dazed by illusions, my reason weakens But I won't let you fall into deep forlornness I won't let you ponder the why in distress A mechanical smile as I lift my face towards the sun And return to denial I weep as I kiss the ground, the trees that I'll soon miss The songs we sang will ring out, the memories will resound |

We packed the wagons A thing arranged, there is no turning back The time has come All to soon A stab allthrough my heart The afterglow Glimmered on the roof of our homestead We rode the nightfall at hand Believe set out into the dark In this night the fires roared As fields were set ablaze It rained ash from the sky In a flaring hiss at night Fromward the land we knew Off to far and distant shores Towards a safe haven Off ot these santonian shores At the set of the sun As mist billowed over the land We got under way Wandering towards our hopes I rode aqhile and looked back Gazed into the sea of flames Laying waste what we called home I won't see this place again A cortege as far as the eye can see A vast migrant parade The glow of a distant dream The awakening came nigh Under a starlit sky Dreams within our hearts Step by step we marched Away into the night |

There at these omnious shores of river Sane There at these shores the die has been cast Valour and honour were stripped off their meaning We will not know innocence again At somber nightfall the defenseless were bestially run down Sane stained with helvetic blood You will not shake hands with arrant beliers You'd rather die than turn into minions Freedom was our highest good We ventured our lives Meet the liar This dead black night Our destiny revealed Meet the enemy It will never be the same At these portentous shores of river Sane There at these shores the die has been cast We saw the true face of the Roman ravener The gorgoneion on the cuirass appeared It was like playing Ludus Latrunculorum Pieces were made of flesh and of blood Valour and honour bereft of their meaning The blood on your hands will forever stay Freedom was our highest good We ventured our lives Meet the liar This dead black night Our destiny revealed Meet the enemy It will never be the same It's not us to go under the Yoke Of that fact the Roman people are witness We will not bow! Meet the enemy Meet the liar Meet the enemy |
| Текст Neverland |
|
Behold this proud Crestfallen parade Dead bodies towered up like this dividing rampart The hopes of yesterday forgotten and interred Burtn to the ground Lacerate my neverland belauded My otherworld elapsed My silver luning Another falce sawn collapsed A glimpse of our safe home Perished in Bibracte Another hope dearly payed When we all were betrayed The end of our exodus Behold this egregious mockery We refused to bow down Our own godsdamn blood was the price we had to pay Santones land we never got to see When the fiends come marching in |
| Текст A Rose For Epona |
|
Do you feel the thorns? Do you see the tears? Do you see the blood shed in this fell war? Have you forsaken us? Have you forgotten our faithful men calling your name? While I stand before you While we perish While I lay down a crimson rose While holding hands Are forced apart While hopes bog like condemned men Were you there? The sky is falling on me As your hand's turning old and weak I'm giving myself up to thee A futile sacrifice gone sere In your nemeton These grey stone walls Are cold and silent As the fallen Mother gone deaf Mistress of shattered hopes And forever broken dreams Were you there? The sky is falling on me As your hand's turning old and weak I'm giving myself up to thee A futile sacrifice gone sere Epo, epo why hast thou forsaken me? Together we go unsung Into thy hand I commend my spirit Together we go down with our people Were you there? Were you there? The sky is falling on me As your hand's turning old and weak I'm giving myself up to thee A futile sacrifice gone sere Falling on me... |
| Текст Havoc |
|
I wonder What it's like To attack at night And mow down the defenseless Invasions and raids just called Fucking Punitive Expeditions Like a wildfire Devastation spreads Across the Gallia From Helvetia to Eburonia The ravener's insatiate Havoc Think of yesterday Ruin A mass illusion: how could it come this far? Our dormant minds were not prepared for this Narbonensis was not enough The empire needed more From aremonica to caruntia Plagued and war-ridden land Wars inflicted on free Gallia An organised downfall A black cloud of imperial Rapancity Unleashed Imperial needs are met At bloody cost of free tribes Invasion, raid and war atrocity In the name of S.P.Q.R. |

Our estates are under fire Our villers fall prey to pillage How can we stay on the sideline How long will we take this lying down? Refuse to quell the anger Time has come to take up arms again The last call to rise up Bestir This is the flash of our last hope Will you ally with us? Wake up - open your eyes Reach out And seize this golden venture We've lost ourselves in strife While the raptor unopposedly Clatus at Gallia's free lands We have to call a halt this Unite the tribes and rise Take a look around yourself And see this time in ours The last call to rise up Our lands are under fire Our villers fall prey to pillage How can we stay on the sideline How long will we take this lying down? It is time to join forces Let the eagles beak burst on our shields Unite! This is Gallia Uprising! Chieftains! The eagles empire stretched out it's talons for our lands. Bribing us. Threatening us. Today we are gathered here, all my countrymen, and still some of you hesitate. You are so solicitous about your state in the roman empire, and while you fight among yourselves for rome's favour, an eve greater vision is crying out to be seen: a country of our own, a free Gaul. Let us stand against the eagle! Unite the tribes! |

Scorched earth we left A barren land of ash Our fatherland laid waste Be the void our fucking monument At a laden dawn At this omnous morn Pila loomed on the horizon Talons of the wolverine Exanimate legions formed At the very gates of avaricum Believed invulnerable This Gallic wall But straight out of nowhere Before our eyes this godsdman bane arose Thus avaricum burns Under a dead sky Avaricum drowns In blood and demise Siege towers emerged Protruding from the ground Standing out against the threatening sky As if to mock all valiantness Face to face with an eye levelled enemy Serried Roman ranks Embattled upon our hold Cut off and trapped inside As the carnage was a hand As the creak of the winches extolled our doom The slaughter befell avaricum Death siffered the oppidum Left to pillage sack and rape Avaricum the brave became avaricum the grave |
| Текст Alesia |

The grass was as green as it always was That sinister day The blackbird sang their songs as they always did That black-letter day The day we passed the great gate for the very last time I did not look back, I knew we'd stay I knew they would not let us go Leave the death strip I saw the gleam in their eyes of fear and enslavement Suffering from the crushing weight Beloveth ground take me home Alseia Alisanos Wake me when I'm gone Ianotouta Eternity Proclaim Our barren sacrifice On that ground we cherished life We embraced death As the children's cries trailed off Sob yielded deathly hush The grass was as green as it always was That sinister day As we walked the alleys like thousand times before I kew we'd stay Outside Alesia We offered a living sacrifice Ourside the doors of Alesia Where our tears run dry |

| Текст Uxellodunon |

This is the final resistance This was the final revolt In desperate hope With tear-dimmed eyes With wrath-torn minds We took up arms one more time Exellodunon Oh the last stand The freddom manifesto We will never forget The things we've seen The deaths we died The tears we cried We will never regter We defied We wiil raise our amr stubs in pride We will never perish Our cut off hands Proclaimed grandeur Land can be taken but Dignity's impregnable Uxellodunon Fortress of free men Shining beacon of indomitability Bearing witness of freedom Witness of our names, cause we will never... immi uiros rios toutias rii Out from the ashes Out from the graves The offspring of antumnos Will arise to life again Uxellodunon Oh the last stand The freedom manifesto |

When I reminisce about all those years of tribulation, I mostly remember our songs. We died, and our blood seeped away on the battlefields; but our songs survived, together with those of us that returned. And as they too will die one day, our songs will live on, and will be sung by our children, and by our children's children. This is how we will be remembered. This is who we were. |
