Sabaton – Sparta lyrics
Many, many years ago, when Persia came ashore
Heeding Leonidas' call, the Spartans went to war
Joined by their brothers, a few against the fateful horde
Hellenic hearts are set aflame,
The hot gate calls their name
A final stand, stop the Persians, spear in hand
Form a wall, live to fall, and live Forever
Sparta! Hellas!
Then, and again, sing of three hundred men!
Slaughter! Persians!
Glory and death, Spartans will never surrender!
Morning has broken, today they're fighting in the shade
When arrows blocked the sun, they fell,
Tonight they dine in Hell
By traitor's hand, secret passage to their Land
Know his name, know his shame will last forever
Sparta! Hellas!
Then, and again, sing of three hundred men!
Slaughter! Persians!
Glory and death, Spartans will never surrender!
[solo]
Sparta! Hellas!
Then, and again, sing of three hundred men!
Slaughter! Persians!
Glory and death, Spartans will never surrender!
Heeding Leonidas' call, the Spartans went to war
Joined by their brothers, a few against the fateful horde
Hellenic hearts are set aflame,
The hot gate calls their name
A final stand, stop the Persians, spear in hand
Form a wall, live to fall, and live Forever
Sparta! Hellas!
Then, and again, sing of three hundred men!
Slaughter! Persians!
Glory and death, Spartans will never surrender!
Morning has broken, today they're fighting in the shade
When arrows blocked the sun, they fell,
Tonight they dine in Hell
By traitor's hand, secret passage to their Land
Know his name, know his shame will last forever
Sparta! Hellas!
Then, and again, sing of three hundred men!
Slaughter! Persians!
Glory and death, Spartans will never surrender!
[solo]
Sparta! Hellas!
Then, and again, sing of three hundred men!
Slaughter! Persians!
Glory and death, Spartans will never surrender!
