Realm of a 1000 Spears

Um pequeno tributo que fiz nos tempos livres a uma excelente banda de heavy metal portuguesa, actualmente desaparecida em combate. Pode ser que ainda voltem, quem sabe? Imagens tiradas do Google, todas referentes a Aljubarrota. A letra não é suficientemente específica, mas, pessoalmente, sempre me lembrei da História de Portugal quando ouvia esta canção. E que feito mais épico que a batalha de Aljubarrota?

The sunset and the cold twilight
Have descend to give us cloak
Just like a legion of dark ghosts
We approach the sultan's hordes

We've come to free this land from tyranny
Our fury is unleashed from deep within

We are from the realm
Where a thousand spears will rise
To overcome the guards
Let the hatred fill our eyes

Making our way through the palace gates
We unleash our taste of hell
Assassins with scimitars blazing
Take the life of countless men

My dagger was foretold to end this reign
We take no prisoners in our campaign

We are from the realm
Where a thousand spears will rise
To overcome the guards
Let the hatred fill our eyes
We shall free this land

Where the stronger will survive
We fight until the last man stands in the sand
THE REALM OF A THOUSAND SPEARS

If the challenge that we face ahead
Is too hard for our warriors to take
We shall fall in the battle today
And tomorrow we'll meet in the sky

We are from the realm
Where a thousand spears will rise
To overcome the guards
Let the hatred fill our eyes
We shall free this land
Where the stronger will survive
We fight until the last man stands in the sand
THE REALM OF A THOUSAND SPEARS
