"Orléans" lyrics

"Orléans"

Arising common spirit
Fills heart and mind
The shadows of the past
Are left behind
We're marching without fear
Side by side
Resolution prevails
No doubts inside

Forgotten are the tears
All suffering and pain
The ringing passing bells
Our struggle in vain
United now
As companions of fate
Determined to fight
Encouraged and unchained

Remember the days
Of many defeats
But now we are stronger
Victorious on the battlefields

At the head of line
Our hope and light
Like an angel of heaven
Elevated, sublime
We follow her call
In growing belief
Her spiritual force
Enlightening mind and soul

At last we see in the distance our aim
We're approaching the town at the dusk of day
Strong emotions erupting inside
As we're passing through the gate - Orléans!

Joy in the streets
A welcome so warm
They rejoice and praise
The virgin at arms
From the distance we see
On the opposite shore
The invincible fortress
Of our enemies

A stronghold of stone
Mighty and tall
In expectation of a battle
Lurking behind the wall
The fire of their torches reveal from a far signals of imminent war - Orléans!
