the day of our heroes

This is the day
Today the noise of battle ends
The victory song fills the air
The old warrior’s name sinks into our ears
But nowhere to hear them chant it

Today there was something in the sky
The clouds were dark and moon red
The warrior knows best
But to give his people a leader

Today all our cream of soldiers fell
With him a thousand broken limbs
With the scream and shout
Today gives his people victory

Today his achievements float on the earth
Today his body sinks below the earth
Today his soul joins the heroes
Today the heavens open for our hero
