Lyrics
**Song of the Gladiators**
(Verse 1)
In the arches of the Colosseum, where the sun shines bright,
Gladiators prepare, for the battle and the plight,
Under the emperor's gaze, the people cry out loud,
For blood and spectacle, in every high and shroud.
(Chorus)
Oh, courageous gladiators, warriors of the arena,
Fighting for glory, in the battle so serene,
With swords and shields, they face their fate,
In the sand of the Colosseum, where blood is the hymn.
(Verse 2)
Slaves and prisoners, forged in battle's flame,
Trained in the schools, in every hurt and shame,
But born as heroes, in the eyes of the crowd,
With every blow struck, a destiny so proud.
(Chorus)
Oh, courageous gladiators, warriors of the arena,
Fighting for glory, in the battle so serene,
With swords and shields, they face their fate,
In the sand of the Colosseum, where blood is the hymn.
(Bridge)
In the shadows of the arches, the crowd's roar,
Awaiting the combat, the glory or the sore,
Fierce animals, in their cages they growl,
Waiting for the moment, to enter the bowl.
(Verse 3)
But behind the spectacle, there's a cold shade,
Morality questioned, in every empty crusade,
For though blood may flow, and hearts may beat strong,
In the eyes of the gladiators, we see a destiny lifelong.
(Chorus)
Oh, courageous gladiators, warriors of the arena,
Fighting for glory, in the battle so serene,
With swords and shields, they face their fate,
In the sand of the Colosseum, where blood is the hymn.
(Outro)
Thus echoes the tale, of ancient Rome's brave knights,
In the battles of the Colosseum, where destiny alights,
May their courageous deeds, be remembered with zeal,
In humanity's memory, forever, without repeal.
