We Shall Not Await the Dawn

With this world to conquer We shall not await the dawn... Assembling under the north star Long before the amber twilight With the war-storm gathering Under the morning horned moon Warriors of middle-earth And waves of fire advance Hatred and humiliation Left in their wake Steel prepares our way Through carnage with great joy The standard of our horde And the menace of their dead Mix with the suffering sound of flames For our fallen (Their names of valor and pride) The skies weep-from black scudding clouds And their streams of blood Burns the fields where the sleep Ascending from their funeral fires The heavens swallow the smoke... Fort he charge of cowardice; For every shield without corpse- Let the fire be hot, flames to enfold Only by death can escape For the honor of all brave men Twilight gleam breaks through the clouds Hailing the deeds of the victors- Worthies warrior of the wide earth Mount up on wings of eagles We shall never await the dawn...
