Legionnaires' Oath Lyrics


Here we stand

Face to face

With our enemies

Cold morning mist

Shall bury their bodies

On blood-soaked fields

We have all given

The oath before the Gods

We are here

To fulfill our part (Our part to soldier on)

We shall fight!

We shall die!

We shall give all for Rome

‘Cause the Empire shall not fall

The charge begins

I throw my spear

Bracing the first blow

My shield holds

I feel my steel

Cut to my enemy’s bone

We have all given

The oath before the Gods

We are here

To fulfill our part (Our part to soldier on)

We shall fight!

We shall die!

We shall give all for Rome

‘Cause the Empire shall not fall

A quarter of a century

Fighting for my country

Today it all comes to an end

My brothers in arms, farewell

The Empire shall not fall
