[Guy of Lusignan, King of Jerusalem] Out of Sephoria On July 3rd we are The vanguard glorious Our rearguard pray for us We will reach Tiberias Nine more painful miles, alas! [The Christian army] We will prevail (onward we go!!!) Our glorious king we hail Onward! The battlefield Shall be our grave [Count Raymond III. of Tripoli] Our kingdom soon will fade They say no man ever made Such a distance in one day Saladin is drawing near Muslim warcries we can hear Christian knights must show no fear [Gerard of Ridefort, Grandmaster of the Knights Templar] Till our last breath we march The slaughter can begin For our kingdom and for our king SongtexteInto battle our old hymns we sing By the hawks, our infantry's pride All for one and one for all! [Count Raymond III. of Tripoli] Our kingdom soon will fade They say no man ever made Such a distance in one day Saladin is drawing near Muslim warcries we can hear Christian knights must show no fear [Guy of Lusignan, King of Jerusalem] The time is near, it's crystal clear No-one give in, no man we fear Its time to fight, before the night Will lay its coat upon this field [Count Raymond III. of Tripoli] Marching - Marching till the end of time Can it be God's will? Will we be burning for a senseless crime Some wounds time won't heal [Chorus] "Saladin was watching every move the Crusaders made and realized that their decision to start heading for Tiberias after an already exhausting march over several miles could give his army the crucial edge which could determine the outcome of the battle. Vested with their firm belief the Muslim forces tightend the noose around the Christians' necks." Aus Songtexte Mania
