1741 (The Battle Of Cartagena)

Alestorm


Lyrics:
Sailing the raging seas
To distant lands unknown
Porto Bello fell in a day
Now Britannia rules the waves
Thirty thousand men at arms
Red Ensign in the sky
To Cartagena we set sail
With blood and plunder we'll prevail
Twice struck, and twice we've failed
But third time works a charm
The greatest fleet the world has seen
To fight the War of Jenkins' Ear
Waters lash across the bow
Through Caribbean Seas
The year is 1741
The final battle has begun
The skies are burning with thunder
The seas are ablaze with flame
Set the course for Cartagena
The sands of time will remember our names
The skies are burning with thunder
The seas are ablaze with flame
Set the course for Cartagena
History is written today
Across the sea-lashed deck
Our captain gives a cry
"Cartagena lies ahead
The Spanish foe will soon be dead!"
Portents of coming doom
Engulf the battle line
High above, the heavens sigh
A red light burning in the sky
An omen of dread
Which no man can deny
The legends hold true
We must turn back or die
Superstitious fools
Be gone from my sight
Blast the trumpets of war
And prepare for the fight
The skies are burning with thunder
The seas are ablaze with flame
Set the course for Cartagena
The sands of time will remember our names
The skies are burning with thunder
The seas are ablaze with flame
Set the course for Cartagena
History is written today
Hard to starboard
Man the cannons
And on my command, unleash hell!
FIRE! Show them your steel
Bring them to death on the battlefield
Ride on the wind, and conquer the foe
The legends be damned, to our deaths we will ago
The skies are burning with thunder
The seas are ablaze with flame
Set the course for Cartagena
The sands of time will remember our names
The skies are burning with thunder
The seas are ablaze with flame
Set the course for Cartagena
History is written today

Letra:
Navegando los furiosos mares
Para alejarnos de tierras desconocidas
Porto Bello cayó en un día
Ahora Britannia gobierna las olas
Treinta mil hombres a los escudos
Una bandera roja en el cielo
A Cartagena navegamos
Con sangre y botín triunfaremos
Dos veces heridos, y dos veces fallamos
Pero a la tercera va la vencida
La mejor flota que el mundo ha visto
Para luchar la guerra de la oreja de Jenkins
Las aguas azotan la proa
A través de mares caribeños
El año es 1741
La batalla final ha comenzado
Los cielos arden con truenos
Los mares se inflaman en llamas
Establece el rumbo de Cartagena
Las arenas del tiempo recordarán nuestros nombres
Los cielos arden con truenos
Los mares se inflaman en llamas
Establece el rumbo de Cartagena
La historia es escrita hoy
Alrededor de la cubierta del mar azotado
Nuestro capitán da el grito
"¡Tenemos delante a Cartagena
los enemigos españoles estarán pronto muertos!"
Presagios de la fatalidad que viene
Traga la línea de batalla
Muy por encima, los cielos suspiran
Una luz roja arde en el cielo
Un presagio del terror
Que ningún hombre puede negar
Las legendas juzgan
Debemos volver o morir
Tontos supersticiosos
Se fueron desde mi suspiro
Explotan las trompetas de guerra
Y preparaos para la guerra
Los cielos arden con truenos
Los mares se inflaman en llamas
Establece el rumbo de Cartagena
Las arenas del tiempo recordarán nuestros nombres
Los cielos arden con truenos
Los mares se inflaman en llamas
Establece el rumbo de Cartagena
La historia es escrita hoy
Fuerte a estribor
Tripulad los cañones
¡Y en mi comando, desatraillad el infierno!
¡FUEGO! Enseñadles el acero
Llevadlos a la muerte en el campo de batalla
Cabalgad en el viento, y conquistad al enemigo
Las legendas están malditas, a nuestras muertes iremos
Los cielos arden con truenos
Los mares se inflaman en llamas
Establece el rumbo de Cartagena
Las arenas del tiempo recordarán nuestros nombres
Los cielos arden con truenos
Los mares se inflaman en llamas
Establece el rumbo de Cartagena
La historia es escrita hoy

Invaders - Iron Maiden

Invaders Iron Maiden Lyrics: Longboats have been sighted the evidence of war has begun Many Nordic fighting men their swords and shields all gleam in the sun Call to arms defend yourselves get ready to stand and fight for your lives Judgement day has come around so be prepared don't run stand your ground They're coming in from the sea they've come the enemy beneath the blazing sun the battle has to be won Invaders ... Pillaging Invaders ... Looting Set ablaze the campfires alert the other men from inland Warning must be given there's not enough men here for a stand The Vikings are too many too powerful to take on our own We must have reinforcements we cannot fight this battle alone They're coming over the hill they've come to attack they're coming in for the kill there's no turning back Invaders ... Fighting Invaders ... Marauding Axes grind and maces clash as wounded fighters fall to the ground Severed li...

Since You've Been Gone - Rainbow

Since You've Been Gone Rainbow Lyrics:   I get the same old dreams same time everynight Fall to the ground and I wake up So I get out of bed, put on my shoes and in my head Thoughts fly back to the breakup These four wall are closing in Look at the fix you put me in Since you been gone Since you been gone I'm out of my head can't take it Could I be wrong But since you been gone You cast your spell so break it Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh Since you been gone So in the night I stand beneath the backstreet light I read the words that you sent to me I can take the afternoon, the night time comes around too soon You can't know what you mean to me Your poison letter, your telegram Just goes to show you don't give a damn Since you been gone Since you been gone I'm out of my head can't take it Could I be wrong But since you been gone You cast your spell so break it Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh Since you been gone If you will come back ...

Still of The Night - Whitesnake

Still Of The Night Whitesnake Lyrics: In the still of the night I hear the wolf howl, honey Sniffing around your door In the still of the night I feel my heart beating heavy Telling me I gotta have more In the shadow of night I see the full moon rise Telling me what's in store My heart start aching My body start a shaking And I can't take no more Now I just wanna get close to you An' taste your love so sweet And I just wanna make love to you Feel your body heat In the still of the night In the still of the night Over here baby In the heat of the day , I hang my head down low And hide my face from the sun Through the light of the day Until the evening time I'm waiting for the night to come In the still of the night In the cool moonlight I feel heart is aching In the still of the night Tell me here baby! In the still of the night I hear the wolf howl, honey Sniffing around your door ...
