this slaughter behold - rome lyrics

[verse 1]
how sleep the brave who sink to rest
by all their nation’s wishes blessed
by soldiers’ hands their knell is rung
by soldiers still their dirge is sung

[verse 2]
their honour comes like pilgrim grey
to bless the turf that wraps their clay
and let peace for a while at least repair
the dwellings of these hermits there

[chorus]
fading flowers in every field
gods above this slaughter behold
to winter floods these beauties yield
and pity man who’ll perish for gold
fading flowers in every field
gods above this slaughter behold
to winter floods these beauties yield
and pity man who’ll perish for gold
[bridge]
now command us to storm the palisades
into this furnace with hand*grenades
and black daggers clenched in jaws
our name on enemy tongue forevermore

[chorus]
fading flowers in every field
gods above this slaughter behold
to winter floods these beauties yield
and pity man who’ll perish for gold
fading flowers on every field
gods above this slaughter behold
to winter floods these beauties yield
and pity man who’ll perish for gold
fading flowers in every field
gods above this slaughter behold
to winter floods these beauties yield
and pity man who’ll perish for gold
