Battle Hymn (MANOWAR Cover) Songtext
von Beast in Black

By moonlight, we ride
10 000 side by side
With swords drawn, held high

Our whips and armor shine
Hail to thee, our infantry
Still brave beyond the grave
All sworn the eternal vow
The time to strike is now

Kill, kill (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Kill, kill (oh-oh-oh)
Kill, kill (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Kill, kill (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)


Gone are the days when freedom shone
Now blood and steel meet bone
In the light of the battle′s wake
The sands of time will shake
How proud our soldiers stand
With mace and chain in hand
Sound of charge into glory ride
Over the top of their vanquished pride

Victory, victory (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Victory, victory (oh-oh-oh)
Victory, victory (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Victory, victory (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

To the battle, we ride
We crossed a starlit sky
No space, no time
We'll catch the wind
Strange losses, men die
We crossed a starlit sky
And still, no space and time
We′ll catch the wind
Yah-ya

Kill, kill (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Kill, kill (oh-oh-oh)
Kill, kill (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Kill, kill (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh)


Sound of charge into glory ride
Over the top of their vanquished pride
By moonlight, we ride
10 000 side by side

Kill, kill (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Kill, kill (oh-oh-oh)
Kill, kill (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Kill, kill (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
