Echoes of Bronze feat. Dionisis Christodoulatos, Chandler Mogel, Revekka Georgiadi & Michael Gildner -
Ilium
At the Shores of Ilium
Sing, O' Goddess! the song of the Achaeans
Of the time when they sailed in a thousand black ships
For an oath, and control of the Aegean
Sing the song of clashing swords
And of the heroes of bronze
That shook the core of Olympus
And may the song of Troy resound throughout the ages
As written, in blood and metal
In Black ships they cross the Aegean Sea
A thousand sails blow, hasting with might
For Jove above the Olympians shouts
He brings the wind and enlightens the path
To the shores of Ilium
For glory and pride the Achaeans unite
To the halls of Ilium
The sons of Troy get ready to host the fight
Stand up and fight!
(Stand up and fight!)
Show them our might!
Oh! Mother watch us from the depths of Oceanus
As Myrmidon swords send the Trojans to Charon
And if my glory is truly bounded to my doom
Let it sound eternally!
Alas! All Mighty Gods in Olympus
Will this city really ever fall?
The highest walls rise over the shore
The price of Helen shall be paid in our blood
(Our blood)
For if thy sons are truly worth that woman's cause
Then Athena guide our swords!
Prepare to land my Achaeans!
The time to fight has come at last
My own blood I've sacrified
For Gold and glory and Trojan demise
In Black sails they crossed the Aegean sea
A thousand ships are landing with might
For Jove above the Achaeans sees
The blades, the shields and enlightens the hearts
At the shores of Ilium
Heroes of old shall offer their blood
At the sands of Ilium
Below the Ida so many fight and die
Mirmidons it's time
Push forward now!
Leave the ships behind
And claim the glory that is your birthright
Draw thy spears up high, Hold the line!
Fight my men to the death, now!
At the walls of Ilium
Heroes of old shall offer their blood
As the sands of Ilium
Are colored crimson with men and gods
Of the time when they sailed in a thousand black ships
For an oath, and control of the Aegean
Sing the song of clashing swords
And of the heroes of bronze
That shook the core of Olympus
And may the song of Troy resound throughout the ages
As written, in blood and metal
In Black ships they cross the Aegean Sea
A thousand sails blow, hasting with might
For Jove above the Olympians shouts
He brings the wind and enlightens the path
To the shores of Ilium
For glory and pride the Achaeans unite
To the halls of Ilium
The sons of Troy get ready to host the fight
Stand up and fight!
(Stand up and fight!)
Show them our might!
Oh! Mother watch us from the depths of Oceanus
As Myrmidon swords send the Trojans to Charon
And if my glory is truly bounded to my doom
Let it sound eternally!
Alas! All Mighty Gods in Olympus
Will this city really ever fall?
The highest walls rise over the shore
The price of Helen shall be paid in our blood
(Our blood)
For if thy sons are truly worth that woman's cause
Then Athena guide our swords!
Prepare to land my Achaeans!
The time to fight has come at last
My own blood I've sacrified
For Gold and glory and Trojan demise
In Black sails they crossed the Aegean sea
A thousand ships are landing with might
For Jove above the Achaeans sees
The blades, the shields and enlightens the hearts
At the shores of Ilium
Heroes of old shall offer their blood
At the sands of Ilium
Below the Ida so many fight and die
Mirmidons it's time
Push forward now!
Leave the ships behind
And claim the glory that is your birthright
Draw thy spears up high, Hold the line!
Fight my men to the death, now!
At the walls of Ilium
Heroes of old shall offer their blood
As the sands of Ilium
Are colored crimson with men and gods
