Prelude
3
I) hector storms the wall
4
See my chariot run to your ships I'll drive you back to the sea
5
You came her for gold the wall will not hold
6
This day was promised to me
7
The gods are my shield lightning and javelins fly
8
Soon many will fall we are storming the wall
9
Stones fall snow from the sky
10
We will pay with our glory in the fire of battle
11
Zeus today is mine
12
Killing all in my way like sheep and like cattle
13
Smashing skulls of all who defy
14
I spare not the hammer I spare not the sword
15
This day will ring with my name
16
None have to chase me let he who will face me
17
Kill me or die by the sword
18
Ii) the death of patroclus
19
Oh friend of mine, how to say goodbye
20
This was your time, but the armor you wore was mine
21
I will not rest until hector's blood is spilled
22
His bones will all be broken dragged across the field
23
This dear friend is how we'll say goodbye
24
Until we meet in the sky
25
Iii) funeral march
26
Iv) armor of the gods
27
V) hector's final hour
28
Here inside the walls of troy, the gods weigh my fate
29
From this bay do I abstain, to a memory of hate
30
To pay for all the blood that spilled the many thousands I did kill
31
No walls can contain the gods' almighty will
32
I hear the silent voices I cannot hide
33
The gods leave no choices so we all must die
34
Oh achilles let thy arrows fly, into the wind, where eagles cross the sky
35
Today my mortal blood will mix with sand it was foretold
36
I will die by thy hand into hades my soul descend
37
Vi) death hector's reward
38
Cowards in the grip of fear, no valor to uphold
39
Cut into the earth, with honor long been sold
40
For all shall come to know me as they fall unto their knees
41
Zeus the thunderer, control my destiny
42
When the cards of life were bealt my hand a ruthless fate
43
To avenge, and bringeth fury, hector feel my hate
44
A bloodbath I was born to bring, by birth I'm an assassin
45
To cut the cord of life and death ties to earth unfasten
46
Blood and fire death and hate, your body I will desecrate
47
Dogs and vultures eat your flesh the hall of hades waits
48
Kill...
49
Hector's blood lies on the battlefield his body's mangled wounds
50
The gods who once protected him are now his gods of doom,
51
Like a tower standing tall, steadfast in direction
52
I fall upon you bringing death, the gods give no protection
53
Coward in the grip of fear, no valor to uphold
54
Cut into the earth, with honor long been sold
55
For all shall come to know me, as they fall unto their knees
56
Zeus the thunderer, control my destiny
57
Blood and fire death and hate, your body I will desecrate
58
Dogs and vultures eat your flesh the hall of hades waits
59
Die...
60
Vii) the desecration of hector's body
61
Viii) the glory of achilles
62
The oath of the gods, this day was fulfilled
63
In the heat of the battle, hector was killed
64
See him patroclus, down in the dust
65
Rejoice in his death my symbol of trust
66
A dozen highborn youths, have been killed
67
Cutting their throats their blood was all spilled
68
Their bodies set at the foot of your fire
69
With oxen, sheep and two of your hounds
70
Your funeral pyre high off the ground
71
Hector's body dragged three times around
72
I will carry the torch to your funeral pyre
73
I will ask of the wind to send high your fire
74
Hector's blood will not be washed from my body
75
Until your body is burned
76
A prophecy spoken a promise fulfilled
77
More blood will be spilled, more will be killed.
