By the shores of sicilia
On mountains under crimson skies
Blowing winds, running wild
Climbing the steeply cliffs
While an adolescent boy
Watches the vast wide shores
And the rising mighty sun
From beyond the deep
From the forest roads
To the Carthisian camp
The last stand on the Italian shores
To be delivered to the Roman troops
Oh sweet land that is stolen
Oh sweet land that is userpered
The great Hammilkart
Prepares the army to retreat
As the signing of the treaty is done
Ships from home land will come
Oh sweet land that is stolen
Oh sweet land that is userpered
And young Hannibal observes
The ships of surrender, they come
To carry what’s left
Of mercenary army
Back home
And the soil of Carthage land
That long forgotten here they respite
And another chapter is fold
So another will begin
With civil war that will delay
The plans of hammilkart
Of a new colony
In a new land to defy the Roman power
And what’s to come
In the distant future
And what will be known of a young boy that will…
From the lands of Spain
Will raise an army
To a land far beyond
To Rome itself

Thundering heavens, roaring gods
Whispering to hamilkart,
(What’s to come: )
A concealed land beyond the sea
Awaits the beloved
(Sons of Baal)
From inside the palace chambers
Plans of conquest are in progression
Masterminds assembled in,
All to the lands of
(Silver and gold)
Blessings of the gods to be taken
And all will have to swear
The alliance to Hammilkart
And the eternal hate to Rome
A pledge that young Hannibal
Will carry all his life
By the morning light
As the incense fills the air
All will allies the general
A ceremony of revere
Where all will swear
Their alliance to the cause
“You’re going to carry these words
All your life
A hate that should grow
More and more
And my son
These word you will pass
To the ones who
Ride for you
And in blood Rome will pay
…And Rome will pay…
Blood
I swear that as soon as age will permit
I will use fire and steel
I will use fire and steel
To arrest the destiny of Rome”
As the new colonies
Fills the shores of Spain their power
Their aspire is to be perturbed
Dark clouds
Shrouds the destiny of hammilkart
Oblivion to
His Death, his life will confine
Riding with his sons
By the river shores
Death looms on them afast
Tribes
Seeking revenge
His life will soon arrest
Not dread of
What’s to come?
Elusive away they ride
Martyr
He’ll become
So his sons would live on
His body’s lost
But his deeds
Will ever and ever reside

Mourners gather from all around
Paying their final homage
Women dressed in black
Wail in sorrow and distress
Weeping skies mourn their beloved child
The sun shades its light behind
Rain drop as tears of weeping gods
And embraces his sleeping soul
Elevating in the pale grey sky
Up to the chambers of immortals
And have its eternal rest
Hasdrubal,
A new command
In Cartagena we - will revive
New lands
Our new gains
The tribes to us shall submit
Years
Years and years
Would pass with multi gain
Until
One shameful day
Hasdrubal is assassinated
Who,
Shall be the one in command
To sway us
Through this turmoil
And revenge
The death of our king
One man
The army hailed to sway
Hannibal… Hannibal… Hannibal
The army shall say its word
A man oblivion his name they call
Stepping up in the glazing sun
With his hand up they salute
Hannibal… Hannibal… Hannibal
Olcades, Vaccaeans, Carpesians
All fell to my hands
Tersosians, Iberians, Celtics
Will join my invasions
Sera Guadrama to me
It shall bow
All of Spain from the Tagus to the Ebro
Is in my iron grip
One city remains aside
This city then made a big slip-up
Our realm is never to be assailed
Saguntum shall pay for its acts
Just one more campaign
Just one more siege to be done
Eight month in the count
And death shall engulf the assailants

Falling … falling… the walls are falling
Screaming… screaming… you’ll be screaming
Bleeding… bleeding… your men are bleeding
Women… weeping… for u they will be weeping
Blood and guts grime our swords
Heads on spikes pleasure our gods
Standing… standing… tall and mighty
Reaching… touching… the heavens above
Daring… willing… to conquer all
To ascend the albs… to touch on the skies… triumph in our grip… till the eternity
Elephants, men and horses
As ghosts we move concealed
Through forests and rivers
Obscured from eyes we march
Through mountain rims we cross
Blizzards we all defy
All tribes we tame
To our cause they strive
Many they fall
Engulfed by snow
Weariness will never
Put us down
At last we see
The green fields ahead
The gates of Rome
Will rumble now
Battles and clashes
History will amend
Kingdom made
From soil
And to soil
It will return
Under our feet
Mere ruins
It shall
Buuuuuurn

War…
At the gates of Rome
Hannibal…
Ante portas
Hell…
Will turn loose
Killing fields…
Legions shall fall
First clash…
Shores of Ticinus
Unwary Scipio…
Wounded and defeated
Back…
Legions retreat
First defeat
Mightier we get
--Sempronius…
Filled with rush
Dead …
Would become
Flaminius…
Blindly in trap will fall
Fogs of death
Will engulf his men
Aemilius…
With mightiest of legions
3 to 1
80 thousand men
Engulfed
By the concave plan
Cannae…
The mightiest of battles
16 years will pass
And no one can rise
To prevail over the genius
Except for one man
>>>>
With one insight
And will be known
As Scipio Africanus
And the famous lines
>>>>>>
“Take the war to Carthage”
Which will save
The walls of Rome
The wrath they dread
The Carthaginian dishearten
Called back their son
To defend and defeat
The luring enemy
Behind their gates
As he returned in hurry
With missing horsemen
The wind will change
(As African allies
Will aid Rome
With decisive element
Men on horses!)

08 - A Final Fight

A final stand, a final fight
On our land, the deceive strike
Invaders we were, Defenders we’ve come
Outside the walls
We gaze at death
All our deeds, all our feats
Now nothing means in deed
Desert winds awaits to engulf the dead
Outside our walls
We embrace war
Treason swept our troops
Nomads deflected to the enemy
A colossal beast we face
But brave and proud we stand
Horns are blown
Decisive it will be
At Zama the due
An amuse for “Death”
Charging elephants
Scattered and alarmed
Horns of fear
Down they fall
All seems lost
Braver we fought
But battle is lost
The war is lost
A shameful peace
We desert our arms
We desert our pride
To the Roman beast
In Hesitate
We now baw
Hannibal
Reside as a threat
Will have to flee
(From court to court)
Bewail glories of the past
What doom will await
Weary
And all is lost
Captive
Will never transpire
His fate
His to claim
Poison
Will rest his soul
To be
Engulfed by the sea
In honor
All will end
The heart
Of Rome
At last
Will be at ease
