Abacaenum Lyrics


Encouraged by recent our victory

thirsty for another battle

we faced Dionysius again

aiming for total victory

Defeat at Abacaenum

800 Carthaginians dead

defeat at Abacaenum

Dionysius triumph

We strike the phalanx

we attack their hoplites

as our cavalry fights

Defeat at Abacaenum

800 Carthaginians dead

defeat at Abacaenum

Dionysius triumph

Courageous Libyans struggle to hold their lines

close formation in a dense phalanx.

strong body shields and long throwing spears.

Gauls and Sardinian allies

self-immolation

With our swords we penetrate them

Mago orders us to hold our lines

their strength was beyond our powers

it’s the end of our supremacy

Our supremacy

Defeat at Abacaenum

800 Carthaginians dead

defeat at Abacaenum

Dionysius triumph

Defeat at Abacaenum Dionysius triumph

defeat at Abacaenum Dionysius triumph
