Lyrics
[Verse]
In porta di ferro alta, your stance still strong and bold,
If your foe mirrors your guard, here's what you must uphold:
Throw a tramazonchello, with left leg stepping right,
Towards your foe’s side, in the midst of the fight.
Your sword will transition, to chinghiara’s tight embrace,
Thrust in falsata, aiming for his left temple's place.
In fear of your thrust, he’ll uncover down below,
Mandritto tondo to legs, make your power show.
Into guardia di intrare, largo passo, you will slide,
Step forward with your right, arms crossing with pride.
Thrust above his sword, also inside,
To his left, towards his face, let your weapon glide.
[Chorus]
Quarta Parte’ Dell’ Primo Assalto
Gioco Largo, Gioco Largo, Gioco Largo
Primo Assalto! Marozzo!
[Verse]
In fear of your thrust, his true edge will strike within,
Half mandritto to his right leg, this only begins.
Do not pass to porta di ferro larga just yet,
If he attacks your head, here’s what you’ll beget:
[Verse]
Right foot close to left, true edge for the parry,
In guardia di faccia, firm and never wary.
Having parried his attack, step left with gallant pride,
Roverso fendente to his right side, let your sword divide.
[Verse]
End in coda longa e alta, for defense, stay alert,
Left foot close to right, guardia di croce, expert.
Then, right foot two hands behind the left you’ll hurl,
Rising falso dritto to his hands, make your weapon whirl.
Left leg strong behind the right, your form pristine and tight,
Sword in porta di ferro alta, ready for the fight.
Settle gallantly and well-formed, in this stance you will find,
The strength and the defense, of a well-trained, disciplined mind.
[Outro]
Quarta Parte’ Dell’ Primo Assalto
Gioco Largo, Gioco Largo, Gioco Largo
Primo Assalto! Marozzo!
Left leg strong behind the right, your form pristine and tight,
Sword in porta di ferro alta, ready for the fight.
Settle gallantly and well-formed, in this stance you will find,
The strength and the defense, of a well-trained, disciplined mind.
[Outro]
Quarta Parte’ Dell’ Primo Assalto
Gioco Largo, Gioco Largo, Gioco Largo
Primo Assalto! Marozzo!
