Lyrics
(Verse 1)
On the fields of Sussex, where the green meets the sky,
In the year 1066, the Normans raised their cry.
With William, the Conqueror, bold and fierce he stood,
To claim a kingdom's throne, with armor and with blood.
(Pre-Chorus)
Echoes of the past, in the rolling English hills,
A tale of might and valor, where destiny fulfills.
(Chorus)
Oh, the Battle of Hastings, where the swords did clash,
A kingdom's fate decided in a single, fateful flash.
Knights and warriors fallen, under England's skies,
The crown and blood entwined, where history lies.
(Verse 2)
Harold stood defending, his brothers by his side,
With courage in their hearts, they fought and they died.
Arrows darkened daylight, shields raised high,
In the heart of battle, many said goodbye.
(Pre-Chorus)
Echoes of the past, in the rolling English hills,
A tale of might and valor, where destiny fulfills.
(Chorus)
Oh, the Battle of Hastings, where the swords did clash,
A kingdom's fate decided in a single, fateful flash.
Knights and warriors fallen, under England's skies,
The crown and blood entwined, where history lies.
(Bridge)
On Senlac Hill the fight did rage,
Through the turning of the age,
From dawn 'til dusk, the struggle keen,
In that land of emerald gree
n.
(Verse 3)
The shield wall broke, the lines gave way,
As evening shadows closed the day.
Harold fell, an arrow found,
The cry of conquest, a new king crowned.
(Pre-Chorus)
Echoes of the past, in the rolling English hills,
A tale of might and valor, where destiny fulfills.
(Chorus)
Oh, the Battle of Hastings, where the swords did clash,
A kingdom’s fate decided in a single, fateful flash.
Knights and warriors fallen, under England’s skies,
The crown and blood entwined, where history lies.
(Outro)
In the annals of the brave, where the heroes sleep,
The Battle of Hastings, where the legends keep.
A song of ancient days, forever will remain,
Where the blood of warriors washed away like rain.
