The Fields of Aasst R'adour

Led to these fields where we lay down our lives
Forward to battle, commanders they cry
Merciless bloodshed, but for why?
Lambs for the sacrifice sent here to die

Flames fill the air ashes blacken the sky
Scorch marks devour the land where we lie
Heroes and cowards, the same fate is nigh
Released from our bodies, my brothers and I

Aasst R'adour
Aasst R'adour

These serene estate I see before me now flourishes once again
With beauty and life as it did before my end
A pasture of elegance holding memories of a dark event
Which once tore apart the land and the souls that were sent
Four million men assembled to face one another
They slaughtered their foes and butchered each other

When the last man fell, he tried to recall
Why it was he was sent to this place at all
A hellish inferno that consumed all he knew
But what had this changed, what good did it do?
No one remembers why so many had to die
Now nature has reclaimed the earth and the sky
