Bài hát Waterloo Báo Lỗi

Usher in the rally cries

Revolution's here again

The emperor's bond's are broken

And free he shall remain


Escape, though narrow was demand

While his reign remained in view

This fight for France through bitter end

He must see it though


Coalition forms of many lands

Against Napoleon, West to east

Dogs of war will take to arms

And soon will be unleashed


Prussian, Russian, and Austrian

All follow British lead

At the allies' helm is Wellington

Who must make his foe concede


[Chorus:]

For shadowed man of destiny

Soon you will be forced to see

Nations aligning against you

Marking your time Your reign is through

...And you will see a 100 days

come to an end

For shadowed man of destiny

Soon you will be forced to see

Nations aligning against you

Marking your time Your reign is through

...It lies before you, fate shall befall you


Quickly the allies gather force

Near the Franco Belgian line

While 124,000 French

march there in double time


As the battle begins

Napoleon springs his audacious plan

He'll attack them on two fronts

splitting up his warring band


As the Prussians sound retreat

Behind they leave 10,000 slain

Most of their force is still intact

and will live to fight again


Wellington, who felt the loss

of 5,000 men

Would feel more under killing fire

bombardment from the French


[Chorus]


Of all the wars I have waged

To propel my nations might

For this I'll be remembered

From now 'till the end of time

If To the victor goes the spoils

I may die an impoverished man

For in the end irony

has dealt the cruelest hand


The French force was swift and sure

But their attack would be repelled

And though the center batteed

The Anglo-Dutch line would be held


And as fate or skill would have it

And army moves in from the east

The Prussians, who slipped through his hands

Would soon spell his defeat


The French lines now are broken

And being open to attack

The emperor has no choice

And the old guard calls him back


45,000 wounded or dead

When the fight was finally through

On a 3 mile square the battlefield

Near a town named Waterloo


[Chorus]
