the battle of the granicus (persian in throes) - sacred blood lyrics
the first clarion calls
commanding the ground
to shake underneath
the phalangites’ sandaled feet!
horses of war
trampling the earth –
dust clouds doth raise
a halo around the charge!
pure ran the river
‘ere the clash of the swords;
the nymphs in the water
shrank back in fear
alexander shines ahead
leading the cavalry forth!
a lion of gold
his helmet flashes a roar:
those who stand against him shall
i fall, down where granicus flows
where granicus flows…
red runs the river
foaming with blood;
the nymphs in the water
embracing the dead!
the din of arms
was heard loud and far
ringing a knell
that sang “the persian in throes!”
barbarians impaled
on sarissae long –
their poignant screams
were carried to abydos’ halls!
to abydos’ halls!
red ran the river
in the battle’s wake –
granicus forever
victory’s shrine shall remain!
alexander triumphant
raised his broad sword –
hailing the sun
and the eagles aloft!
